the timing chain only lines up on the dots every thousand or so times. It will not be perfect everytime. Reset the chain and roll the motor over a couple of times to see if the valves are hitting the piston. Once you have rolled it over line it to TDC and see if the upper chain is aligned, it should not be aligned.
