working on a 4.7 timing chains. I can't get the old chains timing marks to line up before disassembly. The truck was running good before-hand. It is not out of time. It was having head gasket problems. Secondary chains were a little loose, was going to change them while I had it apart. I rotated the motor until I got worn out. Thanks for your help!

I don't know what to tell you except you may not be lining them up correctly.
