The pulleys are keyed in so that when showing 0 they are lined up key/cam wise, so just need to establish true tdc and go from there.

If you want them set up to give the best, this would be done on the rolling road, so you can see the results, and tweak either way.
Just do it to std, marks as this will be closest with using dial gauge, timing disc etc, although can be set with life on overlap.

It only takes a minute to loosen, then retry, so will be charged on the hourly basis I would imagine.
