finding tdc before removing is so the rockers don't force the cover off in case you have 1 bolt in a corner that may bend the cover.

now that you have it off, just check the flatness of the mating surface.

and I hope you'll review the how-to's in the tech section before you try to assemble.

Jason,

Serowbot has something in the Technical Documents about finding TDC.

If you have to pry the top off, you missed a bolt.
Go ahead, ask me how I know.

They're usually the two bolts just inside the covers you take off for valve adjustment.
