Owning a Renegade converted sbc 914, I've often wondered how other owners have solved the problem of not being able to see the timing marks on the harmonic balancer.
What was/is your solution (other than timing by ear)? Thanks! |

I got a tip from here to mark TDC on the flywheel as viewed from the inspection area on top of the trans. Have yet to fire it up and test it but sounded like a good idea. Should be enough space from engine deck lid area to shine timing light and use remote camera to check it. I asssume a timing light with an advance function is necessary since I won’t have degree marks on the case (just location of TDC).
