It's totally normal for the belt not to line up 100%, this happens more so after the head has been skimmed a lot as the head is a different distance away from the crank, those few thous can be seen on the belt, just take it to the one nearest it on the cams.

phew, thats ok then, it was about a quater to half a tooth out, i ended up slightly moving the right hand cam to be able to get the belt on right.
the rollin road man said its running well lean at the top and that it could possibly need a new fuel pump, may try a rewire and new filter first.
any ideas?
