great point,take it from me. i learned the very expensive way buy not 
using a degree wheel kit!!! turns out the new timing chain sprokets were 
indexed wrong(hamburger roller set). did the dot to dot thing and fired 
her up.well after 5 very quick seconds i had 2 valve heads sitting in 
the cylinders. hamburgers response,did you degree it?? nope.. we will 
only refund the cost of the roller set.never again trust anything to 
chance.just one of my very sad experinces!!
