No help here? Maybe you have it sorted by now..
First off your applying only 13 in/lbs (from memory?) to the tensioner bearing which is basically enough to remove the slack in the timing belt, not rotate the crank or cam pulleys. Also once you have the belt installed correctly and aligned correctly before tensioning, any change in the position of the crank pulley isn't going to effect timing unless you allow the belt to jump a tooth.
I usually do it this way:
Align the crank TDC and cam pulley's.
From the crank, fit the belt with the hyd. tensioner removed, starting with the exhaust pulley, which you need to rotate clockwise against spring tension to align correctly. Hold it in place with a bull-dog clip if you like, and temporily fit the lower cover to hold the belt in place on the crank pulley.
Align the cam pulley without any slack, and then install the hyd. tensioner and lock in place temporily, with any slack in the belt removed.
Turn the engine over twice, remove the lower cover, and check your alignment.
Turn the engine to 60deg
BTDC, not 60deg ATDC (BGB is wrong) apply recommended tension to the tensioner bearing and set the clearance on the hyd. tensioner as required.
Turn the engine over twice more and check the alignment and clearance, pull the pin...done.
