Default Quick timing question...

While I'm re-doing my TB, I also replaced the cam and crank seals.

The question is, if the crank is locked at TDC, the timing mark is at the very top, and my cam sprockets are horizontal and locked together, will my timing be good?

When I popped the sprockets from the cams, they moved a bit, but now they're re-lined up, horizontal, and the crank is at TDC.

Can I put the new belt on and expect all to be well?

as long as you got the cam holding tool to hold cams in place it dont matter what you did with the cam gears, the cams are indexed with the those ears with the small and large hole there, install the tool and then tighten the camshaft down and make sure crank is at tdc while u do it and your all good, but if you dont have the cam tool, welp, i wish you the best of luck!
