This may seem stupid.. But, I went to check the timing, and I can't get to it. The timing marks are right up against the firewall. So, is there some trick to it? And, I hope you don't have to crawl under a running car to get to it...

When I did the conversion on my car, I initially used a cup-type flywheel with the 901 transmission, and the engraved marks on the flywheel were not lined up with the crank pulley. Obviously, there is a difference in the way the crankshafts key the flywheel position between the original 2.0 engine and the 2.7.

Use the crankshaft pulley marks and some whiteout (it seems to show up best IMHO) to make the corresponding marks on the flywheel for TDC and 35 BTDC.
