setting timing for 3.0 ?!?!?!

[welderdoug]

I pulled my cmp out while changing my heads, i proceeded to roll my engine by hand to tighten the rockers, now my manual doesnt tell me how to put the cam sensor back in so everything is timed correctly, I did not pull the sensor off, i pulled the entire unit out! If someone could tell me or point me to the resource how to do it I would appreciate it!!!

I think there is a write up in the tech library.

1. Put your engine at TDC.
2. Line up the "flag" on the synchro in the center of the opening and stick it in, flag facing the arrow on the hold down bolt washer.
The important thing is to make sure you are at TDC and the flag in the synchro is centered. You dont need to have the special tool but it makes it fail proof. Theroetically, you can put the synchro in in any position as long as the engine is at TDC and the little flag is centered, but everything fits best if it's facing about 30 degrees.
