Cam positions for a kia rio 2004. I had my belt bust and bended all sixteen valves so I took it to the machine shop but they moved my cams around and I need to find out how to position them.

Ok thanks but I need to know exactly to position the cams before placing the pulleys, here's the thing I took my heads to the machine shop so they moved my cams around and I don't want to place my heads back on the block and end up bending my valves again so I need the hole
8 miles in info here if you can help me.

On a 2004 Kia Reo 1.6 double cam, where do you set the exhaust cam?

The can gear will only fit on the cam in one position, i think that you will see that the dowel pin or key way will point up, just place the gear on and orientate the cam to the correct position using the timing mark (at 12 O'clock)
