Gary,

I guess you still have your motor on an engine stand and planning to replace old worn out timing chain? You could connect the new timing chain with the old one and thread it through the engine. One side at a time. You have to re-check the cam timing setting if you have done it with old timing chain. Using a mechanical or solid tensioner would give you more consistent readings for the cam timing. The lesser the slack on the timing chain, the closer are your measurement readings.
