Anyone have a Fidanza Flywheel But Not Installed Yet?

Does anyone have a Fidanza flywheel that they don't have fitted? Can you describe the timing marks on it? Or have a pic?

I have installed one and as far as I'm aware there's no timing marks on it. But I might be wrong

:( I think I am going to have to jack up my car and turn the engine over by hand and see what marks there are.

Edit - Although I have just come across this: http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/honda-p ... t4052.html

I've heard of some flywheels not having timing marks on them. Don't remember seeing them on my JUN flywheel, but need to double check when I install it with the new gearbox in the new year.

Judderod's technique to find TDC, etc sounds good enough. Even easier if you have adjustable cam gears.

Merlin: Have you checked your Fidanza fitted has timing marks then? :?

No I haven't checked. This is me reading up before I go and try and sort the timing. You would expect Fidanza to have it very accurate :?

I didnt quite understand Judderod's technique :?
