I have read a couple sources saying the "T" mark on the bolts in the timing area should be facing out and down. So the base of the T pointing approximately 45 degrees out from straight down. Any info on this? Seems I have two that are not facing this way but my valve clearances are correct.

Post a photo. They should be pointing outward and not towards each other

I work with CB750s on the honda end mostly. A but different. I did notice that tightening the clearance was done counter clockwise. Is that normal? When going clock wise it would end up bumping the screw opposite of where the mark should point.

Yep on the index marks but that's for a 450. Do you have the 350 manual? This whole thing is in the manual

I believe it's
Lt exhaust - clockwise loosen
Rt ex - CW tighten
Lt IN - CW tighten
Rt IN - CW loosen

I dont have the manual. But yea that seems to be how it was. Corrected all the screws. Got my valves, timing, and cam chain set. need to re-jet for pod filters now. Too bad these things didnt come with normal jets...
