Posted on this forum vast times and more on the web,(ever google it?)
its not just a simple 1 line answer
its a set of complex steps,
and depends on what you took off engine, or the JOB.
you never said what JOB is at hand.
new engine built, new head?
new chain only , cams not messed with or removed.
we cant guess what you do or the job unless you said.
alldata.com covers all the steps; why not get that and study that
and make sure you dont wreck a good interference engine.
keep the key locked up until 100% sure the cams are timed to perfection. or loose. (boom)
let me type in the google box for you.... here goes...

amazing huh..... but id never use net rumor to time any DOHC engine. (im too savvy)
id buy a real FSM book or go here.... and down load it.

discount version... too....
no one more time, i type for you, this time search fixya
https://www.google.com/webhp?gws_rd=ssl#q=fixya++isuzu+3.2L+timing
as you can see there is no lack of same questions asked here.
just search.
isuzu tech's all claim its non interference.
but the FSM (read it) say it is ! (need proof?), my guess is that some engines
sold world wide are, after all engines have different cams world wide.
so we treat all DOHC engines as interference, so we dont make it worse , on a guess, or net rumor or engine has different cams.
the timing steps are complex, on this engine, DO NOT GUESS.
I have a nice mazda DOHC that is free running, free running and RWD, 2 reasons to own one.... its one of the rare. DOHC. 1.8L
Better check with
Isuzu that is not how there timed

try checking out your blower speed control resistors. follow your power wire from blower to the resistors, to locat, should be in duct in front of blower for cooling. I hope this helps, if the resistors pack is good only think else is a bad switch

get a repair manual there must be a mark or reference point of some kind
SOURCE: need timing marks for Daewoo engine in Chevy Aveo
The crankshaft gear has a triangle timing mark on it. On the outside of the gear near the teeth. This points straight down, and lines up with a notch, on the bottom of the rear timing cover.
The camshafts have a mark on the outside of the gear, near the teeth. The camshafts are turned, so that the marks are to the inside, (in-between the gears), and the marks point to each other.

These are jobs I wouldn't advise a person not qualified to do.Sorry to say that.The first thing you have to do before you remove the timing belt is to study and see if you can identify the marks.Its been a long time I worked on a Camry but I still remember there is a mark on the cam gear that should be at 12 o'clock then number one is firing.The crank sprocket also should have a mark or you can use the one on the timing cover aliening with the crank pulley mark.
Caution
If you fitted the belt in a wrong way,the valves might hit the piston and cause damage.I would suggest you remove the belt,spark plug and tappet cover.Put a screw driver in the spark plug hole and ask someone to turn the engine slowly and carefully until the piston is half way.If there is restriction,turn in a different direction.Then turn the cam gear until number 4 valves rock.If they do,look carefully on the cam gear and you will be able to see a dot that should line with a certain mark behind the gear if am not mistaken.
Then tern the engine observing the screw driver movement.Only stop when it stops going up and thats your tdc.Again,search for mark on the block that should line with the mark on your sprocket.
Also make sure that the rotor on the distributor is pointing at number one.
This is just to help you find your way.
