Before I removed the RH chain I set the key way to 12 o clock but did not verify the RH timing mark to also be on top. I then rotated the crank to 5 o clock and proceeded with the install. Does anyone know a way to fix this? thanks for your help

Take it apart and start over. Just follow the instructions to time the cams. It's pretty easy. Watch a YouTube video that may help to give you a visual of it.

If anyone else gets lost while doing this. I was able to rotate crank backwards to re align everything and then restart procedure. Running good now

Thanks for the information. I'm planning on doing this job soon myself, curious, how did you torque down your crank bolt?

They recommend a strap wrench... I didn’t have one so we wrapped an old belt around it and held on :)
