Andy:

Sounds almost good to me, but how much is "almost" closed? How does this sound to everybody: Mark your harmonic balancer every 90 degrees (you can buy adhesive tape that is specially marked for harmonic balancers). This way you can tell when any given piston is at TDC. Adjust both intake and exhast one cylinder at a time with each one at TDC on the compression stroke (both valves closed).
