Setting Adjustable Cam Pulleys
I've done countless searching on various forums on this topic, and read countless posts on aligning the cam marks on the cases etc when changing belts.
What I have not been able to find is resetting the adjustable cam pulleys to stock. There is ample information on cam degreeing, providing you have the tools to do it, but what about just setting back to stock, in the case you had to remove a pulley or, the adjustable ones (in my case) have slipped?
On the camshaft flange, where the pulley mounts to, there seems to be a notch that looks as if it would match up to the "dot" or marking on the pulley, that would then of course match the case markings when setting your timing.
This notch, in the case of the adjustable pulleys, could be moved advance or retard from the pulley marking via rotating the pulley either way.
Am I correct to assume, that under stock, or factory assembly, that that notch in the camshaft flange, is supposed to line up with the marking on the adjustable pulleys, which would then line up with the case markings?
It all makes sense to me, this would give you a baseline or stock timing, that, if you didn't have the means to degree properly, would give you a pretty standard setting.
