bought a civic that needed a head gasket, replaced the gasket and now doing the timing belt, tensioner and water pump. anyway, while the belt was off the crank and/or cam got moved. now that the head is back on the block, am i safe to rotate each to TDC? the pistons have 4 relief cuts in them if it makes any difference.

I dont understand what you mean by "each at TDC". You are however safe to put the crank at TDC if that is what you meant.
