Attempting S52 cam swap into M52. Not sure if PO was in the head before or not.
If I rotate the crank to TDC, the square ends of the cams with the holes do not line up whatsoever with the head. Also the front cam lobes are not even close to a 45 degree angle to each other. In addition, I absolutely cannot get the flywheel locking pin into any type of hole. The arrows on the sprockets of the exhaust cam don't line up either.
If I rotate until I can engage the flywheel locking pin, one position is clearly not right, but one allows me to 1) actually lock the flywheel, 2) the square ends of the cams with the holes/letters line up perfectly flat with the block, 3) the front cam lobes are at 45 degree angles to each other
However the arrows on the cam sprockets still don't line up (as in about a mile off), and the mark for TDC on the crank pulley is about 10 teeth past the mark on the block.
Do I go with the first scenario, where absolutely nothing lines up besides the TDC mark, and i can't insert a flywheel locking pin?
Do I go with the second scenario, where a few things line up and I am at least able to lock the flywheel, but TDC mark on crank pulley is wayyyy past the mark on the block?
