H22A4CivicHatch

Hi, I recently purchased a Civic DX with the H22A4 engine swap done too it. After owning it for a month, I spun the timing belt off, bending 7 of the valves. I had the head rebuilt and everything replaced. I now have put everything together, and have it all aligned to TDC. I have aftermarket Skunk2 Cam gears, both placed at stock settings, non-adjusted. When putting my distributor back on I aligned it with the cam shaft and according to the diagrams I have the rotor on my distributor is point to piston #2 not one, like the rest of the engine is.
Has anyone else had this problem, or know how to fix this problem?
And if anyone has the schematics of the distributor and the firing order of the engine, that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Braylyn.

No it doesn't run right now, ask I still don't have the valve cover on with no fluids in it. And what exactly do you mean?

i think what the above moron is trying to say is that he thinks you should have the two cams with the lobes facing the same direction.

You first step should be to make sure the rotor inside the distributor is correct. Is it aftermarket rotor(say msd or something?). from there i wouidl also look into making sure the cams are degreed properly.

Could you explain to me to me how to make sure the cams are degreed properly? I believe I have them correct, however, I may not..
As far as I know its the stock rotor, but I will check that and get back to you. And by correct what do you mean?

Still have had no luck fixing the issue, going to talk with the guys at the Honda Dealership, if anyone has any idea or has had this happen, please help!

If valve timing is right, run it. maybe its not the stock distributor. Put plug wire one where ever the rotor points at TDC. Then with a noid light and a timing light, see if the injectors are firing in the right order at the right time, should run even if they aren't. tell us your findings.
