<VV> Engine assembly questions

[Mark Durham]

Karl, here are your answers.

1. Put the case together DRY.
2. Go to Clark's tech-8 page, there is a picture.

I assembled mine with one case half laying flat on a board over a open
garbage can, drilled holes in the board for the push rods.

But if you look, you can confirm cam to crank alignment by using the
relative positions of the crank and cam keyways.

By placing the case half flat, I inserted the heavier crank, and added
the cam, then confirmed the alignment.

Hi all, I am finally putting together my engine. I have a few questions....
1) Is there a sealant I should use between the two crankcase halves?

2) How the #$%^ does one find the timing mark on the crankshaft gear? I
can't see anything on the gear on account of the flange that obscures it.
