OK, I want to check and adjust the timing on the 2.7L six that i recently installed in my 914 but could use some advice on the subject. How in the world would you be able to point the light at the pulley unless maybe you were under the car while it turns 3K rpm - that seems a bit dangerous though. How's this done? BTW, I have a nice craftsman adjustable timing light but have never timed anything with it.. actually haven't timed anything for a looooong time, advice is appreciated!

there should be a little window on the transmission, that allows you to see the flywheel. I have a picture of this, but its on my home pc. I have posted it before though so a search may find it
