  1. Hi all, I'v done a head job on a DKZ head (thanks again welshpug for the help with the valve springs), with a D6B camshaft (two marks near the distributor end of the cam) and I've followed the Haynes procedure to fit the cambelt (Contitech). The head has been shaved just to clean it up (minimal material removed), and the head gasket was a 'normal' item from an Elring seal kit. I've fitted timing dowels in the cam and crank pulley. I've put on the belt, and tensioned the roller by hand. I did two revolutions of the crank, and checked if the timing dowels still lined up (they did). However, when I then tension the belt until I can just twist the the long end of the belt 90 degrees with two fingers, the timing marks do not align anymore. The crank timing hole is now about 3mm out. Is this correct? Does anyone have the cam timing specs of the D6B so I can check? (I'm already looking forward to finding true TDC....)
