i put the crank sprocket pointed strait up and both cams with the aarows faced up. there are no marks to line up with on the block that i can see. i put the belt back on not knowing there is a timing mark on the belt, the car wont start.. can anyone get the color crayons out and help me time this engine the correct way?
ive looked on a few different sites and found different answers . any help would be appreciated

On the crank sprocket, there are two marks, the arrow, and a notch. You line up the notch with a notch on the crank sensor housing, and the arrow will be pointing at around a 45° angle towards the driver side.
