Timing belt cam issues

When replacing my timing belt i put the cam pulley marks on the ‘T’ but when i removed the old timing belt the cams ‘sprung’ cw by about 20 deg. How do i account for this when installing the new timing belt? Should i rotate the cams back ccw 20 degrees to realign the marks?

 

Please don’t double post.

 

I dont think this is s double post if you read carefully. My first post was should I follow the Haynes manual re timing belt

2nd post was asking for help AFTER i followed the Haynes manual with its repercussions.
yes same topic (timing) but different questions.

 

Post some pics of your engine showing crank and cam positions

 

Also, your profile says you drive a 2016 with a 5.7. Has no timing belt. Isn’t first gen. What engine are you working on???

 

Oops sorry
Ty for pointing that out. This is my sons Tundra that I’m working on: ‘06 V8 150k miles

 

Need to have both cams and crank at the appropriate timing marks. 20° is a small amount. If it were me, I would have the crank timed at the appropriate timing mark to correspond with the T for the cams, and rotate the cams back to the T to ensure appropriate timing. Might be easier said than done as the spring tension will fight you. Pics would help to see where your cams and crank are atm
