Ok so I'm doing a head replacement on my ls but engine is in the car trying to set it to TDC but I can't see the pointer on the lower cover. Any one no a better way to check for TDC. I tryed lineing up the cams but look like one jumped a tooth so no luck. Or a way I can see the pointer

pull the plug in cylinder number one n use the dipstick to make sure its tdc

Pull the belt off and line the cams back up

The cam gears have marks. Its easy.

the up marks must be up and each cam has a little tiny line u need to have those line up and take the cover off at the bottom of tha crankshaft pulley u can see the marking on the block and good luck its a pain in the ass

to tell u the truth on a bseries when u look at the cams sprocket one looks slightly off about a tooth....even though it looks so it really isnt.....i assume the cam that looks funny to u is the exhaust cam....thats the one thats supposed to sit that way before u put the belt and tighten tensioner.....its hard to really explain but u really should get someone who knows wut they doin to actually show u...that way u wont break anything and you will learn how its done....

There's also holes on top of the cam to insert keys
