Now might as well I changed the water pump, after putting everything back together with a 1.4mm thick head gasket because of machined head, I come to put the new belt on that I got from porsche dealership, and I just can't seem to get the timing right... I have trieddd everythingggg, at this point I don't know what's happening, I'm at TDC, all the marks are right, the 0T on top of bellhousing, and camshaft pulley mark, lock the flywheel, tighten the tensioner, I check the marks and I'm off half a tooth. Please helpppp guys I don't understand what's happening, that job isn't suppose to be that crazy.
