i thought my motor was complete junk so i didnt set any timing marks anywhere, and i didnt look at where the timing marks where when i removed the head. turns out i have a huge chunk missing from the head gasket, and a small "fixable" dimple on the head. can someone send me a link that has pictures of where the timing marks are supposed to be . spending too much money to mess this up! i have the stock g180 and it's a 79.

From my 77 shop manual:

4 Check that the mark on the #1 rocker arm shaft is in alignment with the mark on the camshaft and that the crankshaft is pulley groove is aligned with the TDC mark.

5 Assemble the timing sprocket to camshaft by aligning it with the pin on the camshaft; use care not to remove the chain from the sprocket.

6 install the sprocket retaining bolt and washer....

It also suggests marking the position of the distributor housing before removing the camshaft.

timing marks 1.8L stock

Hope this helps if not try the search button
