Yes, I agree and Thank You. After looking through the timing hole there is one spot where they line up fairly close so I'll go with that. This engine has a two piece flywheel. Michael

I'm not sure, as these are timing marks on the flywheel ring.

Installing flywheel on R67 engine and am wondering about timing marks on rear portion of flywheel ring. This ring has a line on the edge with a T on one side and a Z on the other. Uncertain how to install this. Thanks, Michael
