I've read the cam chain tip and followed the manual procedure for aligning the cams. The alignment mark on the exhaust cam lags behind about a degree or two. My question is if I'm in tolerance.

I've found top center using a degree wheel and piston stop.

I've aligned the indicator with the the T mark.

After following the manual procedure for aligning the cams and setting the chain tensioner the intake cam marks align very close.

The exhaust cam marks lag a few degrees.
Do I have more work to do here?
