If I do that, then I can set 1/2 the valves on the compression stroke for #1 and the rest on the compression stroke for #6, which is obviously a hell of a lot easier. My only issue is that Steve Christ recommends using TDC for
each cylinder for higher lift cams, not sure exactly why. I am not quite sure my "B" cam qualifies for that, but wasn't sure.
