Depending on the year of your car you just have to align the dowel pin back up with the correct spot on the back of the opti.

It doesn't matter what position the engine is in. The opti regardless of fhe year fgoes on only one way. 93-94 has a keyed spline drive. 95-97 has a slot for the dowel pin that's in the cam. Very easy to do and see once you get in there and do it
