I searched the forums and found instructions. removed air cleaner and valve cover, ran engine to operating temp. (surprised you can do it with valve cover off, too cool). checked clearances while running, all appeared a little loose. stopped engine, put in 4th gear, rocked car back and forth to adjust the intake and exhausts, ran again to temp and they appeared to be correct, or closer.
going by the birfield.com directions, he says to rock engine until you can see it's TDC in the "timing window in the bellhousing".
I'm a newbie here, can anyone clue me in to where this is?
Also, had to get the wife out there to help and hand me tools, does anyone know a good divorce lawyer? ;)
Thanks in advance

Trace your starter wire to the starter the window is near by, and is found by looking backward toward the exposed section of the bell housing. LOL Doc
