Guys, I hate to make another post, but I'm trying to get this timing done.
I'm pretty sure I have it right, but I'm also being a bit paranoid. My cams do not have the mark on them to line them up..why I have no idea... On the pulley themselves they have a dot on one of the spokes, and I've referenced other pictures i've taken before I removed the belt, and seen couple online to see where things have lined up, and it appears spot on...I just don't understand why mine do not have the cam marks to match to the head. Hard to eye ball the spoke dot, with the head grove.... I've ran my finger around the cam, and went face first with a LED light..there is no mark on the cams. Any ideas?

QUOTE (Tigawoods @ Aug 8, 2012 - 6:02 PM)  how about a dimple on the side of the gears Only dimple I'm seeing, is on one of the spokes of the cam pulley. Inside and outside of the spoke, same spoke. Nothing on the gears themselves. Just double checked, found some other pics online of the USDM 3s with its marks, but it doesn't have those either. From what I'm reading on a few walkthroughs, as long as the dimple on the spoke lines up with the grove that is on the valve cover plate that the timing cover attaches too, its TDC...anyone confirm? like this  How I have it.  No marks =/
