Ok where are the timing mark's on the bottom behind the crank pulley I don't see any marking on the back. I see the cam gears and marking on the timing cover (bottom) but not a mark on the facing next to the oil pump gear where is it can I get a picture please

well I'm I dsm guy and on most car's theirs a marking before the crank pulley but I guess not on these 7mgte. ok so just make sure i'm at tdc. on #1
and the reason i wanted to not is I'm putting a newe belt on this motor befor I drop it in.
I was gonna got to a 2jz or 1jz but I got a 7m for 100 bucks.

Just temporarily install the timing cover, and pulley, you don't have to bolt it up, or anything. For that matter, I always waited until I installed the things, and did my cam timing last.
