Most overhead cams either line up to a arrow, even with top of head horizontally, or straight up.Good rule of thumb to locate cam line up is that the exhaust lobe should be at 10 o'clock and the intake at 2 o'clock, with piston at TDC

I just read how this is done on the predator and it looks like you better get a manual. ;)

PM me and I will tell where to download it for free.
