Thanks Dave.

I have the cams timed correctly in the 200ti, I think. The "dot" index mark on the front cam facing straight down, the "dash" index mark on the rear cam facing straight down. The dot and dash index marks are 90° cam rotation apart, 180° crank rotation. Seemed logical, so I went with it.

The valve train movement is very close to what I would expect to see, however the rockers are not level with one another at TDC of the exhaust stroke. They are close but not perfectly level. It would take 1/2 of a tooth of cam rotation to make it them level, which of course is not possible. Bottom line, I would run it like it is. Just waiting on delivery of custom glow plug thread repair inserts.
