It is probably a good idea to do it, I have not experienced any of the factory timing marks (assembly marks) to be off by more than 1degree, but if yours are then it is a bit of insurance to assure 100% accuracy.

My car is currently in for a belt change.  The mechanic ask me if I wanted
him to degree the cams and make a reference mark for future use.  He
said that there wasn't anything of "real use" on the cams in the early
years.  He's charging me an extra 3 hours for this.

There are a bazillion threads on this subject on FChat. Basically you need to degree your cams to check for accuracy if you feel they are off. There are some great threads written about this process. The general concensus is that the marks are 'reference only' marks and should not be trusted until verified.

FWIW, YMMV

Has anyone ever experienced the cam timing marks on a ferrari engine being inaccurate? If so, was it because they weren't the original heads or cams,
or was it just a factory stuff up?
