[DMCForum] New timing chain question



I'm still leaning towards a mis-placed distributor as the reason for 
my car not starting (especially in light of new info I received 
during a phone call last night). But I have one final question on the 
timing chains.

When installing the chains, at this point, it's irrelevant where the 
pistons are in their stroke right? What matters is the marks on the 
chain line up with the marks on the cam and crank sprockets.

I did this exactly as the Book and DMCH said. I was even told you 
don't have to be -that- precise as the distributor would be adjusted 
to smooth it out. If I was off, then the pistons would strike the 
valves. I hand cranked it 4 times to make sure nothing was 
interfering, so this has to be correct.
