I finally got all my stuff for my 440 I have a new 450 chain on, my cam chain tensioner is movin no problem Im lookin at just poppin on the head drop cam in (stage3)

my concern is lining everything up Im assuming with the piston up top cam gearmark straight up suposedly the cam lobes pointing down ,thats how it all goes does that cam gear point to anything to make sure its lined up ? & the 440 gasket I have says XR400-440 ,no biggie it will be fine but its a 12.5 to1 440 Wiseco & Im wondering if theres gonna be clearance issues (I heard thXRs are thinner gaskets) I see too many posts with people hitting their pistons & valves.
