I got it close with the crank pulley. I found it very hard to see the marks. Then I used the marks on the cams gears. The most precise way to me is to remove the chain cover and use the marks on the block and crank gear. They are very easy to line up, but removing the chain cover on a Si is a major PITA. I have done both.
