    timeing and cam lobe angles

    I set the timeing so all the marks are correct, ie cam dizzy and flywheel, but today a mechan'ic freind of mine called round to have a look,and he seems to think that the lobes on the two cams look wrong.He said that on tdc no1,the lobes should be pointing more upright, and not 45% inwords as they are now,but he admits he is not familliar with the I5.I wondered if anyone could tell me what if anything is wrong,the cams where taken out at the engine shop,in order to do the head,and I put them in or should I say realined them as the timing marks would not line up.

    There should be a dot on each cam sprocket that point towards each other when the cams are timed correctly.
    Here's a picture of my cams at TDC. Sorry for the poor picture, but it was a little dark.
