Speaking of Matt, I was just doing searches looking for solutions, and I found this bit that you wrote last year:

Rotate the engine to TDC with the head off and rock it back and forth. The valves will either not move at all or will rock slightly as you wiggle the crankshaft. If they wiggle and one valve is open more than the other, then you are probably off a tooth on the cam.

You may have even said something to that effect here and I forgot about it. This looks like the easiest way for me to check this without pulling the motor.
You still think it's a good way to tell? I don't quite understand the mechanics behind it, and wonder if I'll really be able to tell if one valve is higher than the other...
