Ok, so this is the first time Iv pulled a timing chain, and It appears that Iv missed a step. Is there a way I have to align the dampener before I remove it? Since I will be replacing the chain/gears, do I still need to mark coresponding points on the two gears? I havent pulled the dampener yet, but before I do I want to make sure Im doing it right.

You got that chain pretty darn fast Indy! Do you live just down the street from Summit?
thats what iv been using to tell me how to do it, but i just didnt get how it was worded. It took me a couple of times to re read it to get it.
the chain isnt here yet, but I cant drive the truck because its just pissing antifreeze, so I figgured I may as well pull it apart now, that I have free time, and when the chain gets here, just bolt it back together.
its my dd, but I only travle 4miles round trip weekdays, so Im just gonna ride my bike. (the college is right across the way) The hard part isnt being without transportation, its being without my truck
well to tell you the truth, unless you are going to remove the distributor, dont worry about the dampner, just pull it and line the two dots up with each other. cam, dot on bottom, engine, dot on top, though I may be 180* off on the cam, but again unless you pulling the distb no prob.

thats what I was thinking, but Im going to err on the side of caution.
Aligning timing marks?
