Received engine.Do you have any more rejects.

ORIGINAL: Antique

Easiest method..
Take the plug wire off so you can hear the spark.
turn the crank (CCW) slowly..when you hear the spark make a pencil line across the hub and crankcase..
Measure hub diameter, multiply by .244 for 28 degreess...put piston on TDC..Marks should be that distance apart...
If it takes more than 5 minutes you're really slow...
