Guys .. Hey... I believe you (sounds lke some threads in the Dodge
group .. :). After looking the situation over, I didn't need the
mark, anyway.
Bllsht's post:
"The trailing edge of the rotor should be just PAST the #1 terminal at
TDC."
That post saved the day for me. When I put it in the first time I
centered the tower and it ran like crap. I thought I remembered about
the trailing edge .. re-checked the posts.. and set it like Bllsht
said. That cleaned it right up.
Thanks Bllsht!! :)

Even a timing notch on the vibration damper that aligns with the
modestly well hidden timing scale. A good bendable mirror and you can
see it with everything installed. Not that the timing is adjustable
other than with the engine controller.

Well you are right, I went out and looked again and still had no marks
so I took a scraper to the area and sure enough, the marks are down
there under the mud and crud. Mine have never been cleaned because they
aren't used normally.
