How you set the timing on the 3.5L, first make sure the crank at the bottom is pointing arrow to arrow, then at the top your cam dots have to be (between) the 2 little dots, on the timing housing on each side after the belt and everything is tightened up. Sometimes if it is not done right and after u tighten up everything like the timing belt and stuff the dots will be aligned with each other and (that is not right). So if you align the dots up to the one on the right hand side with each other, then tighten the belt up assuming you have all the slack worked out of the belt. Then after its tightened they should be in between the 2 little dots on the timing housing, but sometimes this can be aggravating.I just got done rebuilding my engine is the reason I know this.
