Camshafts not inline.

[The Monk 50]

I've had a lookski at these threads and can't find any posts relating to it. Sorry if there are.

I've bought a non running golf vr6. A project for myself. The chap I bought it off, said the chain had been under tentioned and slipped causing the timing to go out the window. He said the EV on cylinder 6 had bent slightly, HOWEVER, showed me a pic of the piston crown....not damaged, luckily.

The crank pulley timing marks are lined up but each camshaft timing groove is sitting at about 2 O'clock.

I'm taking the cylinder head off and replacing the EV. I have a VR6 timing tool that I will be using.

If the crank pulley timing mark is lined up, can the camshafts be lined up so they sit horizontally and will that mean everything is aligned? :-#

I am aware more material should sit on the lower half.
