Question top dead center?
How do you find top dead center on an rx-7? I just finished and engin build and I made the mistake of taking the main pulley off. The engine is back in the car and the distributer is the next step. Thanks.

Do a search for "TDC" and you should find several great threads on this and some pics.

Here is the link I believe. Another guy on the site is having the same question. He did it too so maybe ask him if this doesn't figure it out.

http://members.optusnet.com.au/~onec...-%20part%20one you can find TDC for any pulley made for a rotary. Easiest and most accurate and it's exact.

Basic but colorful and not enough details on how to mark the pulley.

just my $0.02.
