Ok. Got home tonight pulled of the CAS and the T-Belt top cover.

A TDC the CAS was 180" out, which I figured since I swapped it since the car wouldn't go past 4000rpms with fuel cut or w.e. it was.. felt like fuel cut. Now when my CAS was set correct, I didn't know then my spark plugs where gapped wrong, my gapper was wrong, I rechecked and the gap was .20 before, maybe this was the cut out problem b4.

So I change the cas 180" out to TDC according to the timing marks, which I know are correct cause my waterpump was done at a shop and I was there to verify was all timed good since I was driving from NJ to FL and was stuck in South Carliona.

So now below is my UD crank pulley.

You can see in the pictures that the timing mark is way off of the marks on the T-belt case. This is where I see it when I time it!:dsm:

Or is this mark my timing mark, if so thats why I couldn't see it with the light. I should try highlighting it better maybe. I can only see it here in the picture.

i think its the last post of mine... its towards the middle, i have no a/c so its almost the middle.. but that where it should be at TDC tho right? When it was off the car, thats the only mark/chip in the pulley I could find looked just like that one in the picture with the 5" BTDC

When your setting the base timing, that is where it should be, your right. It should be +/- 3* from the 5* mark.
