have you figured this out yet. your a bit confusing you say the engine started and ran rough and then you say no start? so no start after your rebuild?

you have to get the crank at tdc and the #1 cam has to have the lobes pointing downward. then you install the chain and the phasers if needed make sure you got the correct phasers. the lea engine are both the same.

go to the cloyes website and run the vin to see if your vin uses the same or different phasers if you changed them

get the codes if any and post.

so do a YT on changing the timing chain on that engine or let us know ans someone will link you to them. the timing marks will not be aligned after you turn the crank one turn. so do not look for that. double check you engine the lea uses the same cams and phasers.

let us know how your doing so we can coach you. and let us know how ti is doing.

good luck
