I have an U/R underdrive pulley and need to check my timing. The pulley has the timing marks on it, but it is so much smaller that it does line up w/ the pin. How do you guys with underdrives get an accurate reading? thanks

I just hope for the best.

Or, if I actually do need to set timing, I throw the stock pully back on real quick.
