lining up the dots When reinistalling the cam gear and lining up the dots on it and the crank gear how close can the dots be and still be off, from one angle the dots look lined up from a different look they look like the might be off by a quarter to a half a tooth, is it possible for them to be off just a few degrees with the setup on an ls1?

About the only thing I found to be reassuring about the whole process was when as an experiment I tried to place it off one tooth. Just one tooth off is WAY off dot-to-dot, so it's obvious when you're right.
