Timing chain installation issue?

I installed a new timing chain. I had all 3 of the marks aligned properly, then installed the guides and tensioner. I rotated the crankshaft manually counterclockwise to check my timing. It took four chain revolutions to get the marks to almost re-align, but now all 3 are one full link to the right (retarded). Is this right? I saw on another advisory that the master mechanic stated that the marks will never align again. I rotated the timing chain an additional 4 revolutions to check if the 3 marks lost another link like the first 4 revolutions. As I suspected, all 3 were retarded 1 more link (2 total now). So, I'm confident my timing is correct. But I'm unsure of the probability of any of the valves being bent. Is this likely? I imagine a DOHC allows a greater clearance inside the cylinder, since the valves wouldn't be as close to each other like a SOHC. Thanks for your knowledge on this matter.
