Hans,
Did the cams for the first time last year using the updated instructions from Marc posted on his business site. Takes time but once one cam done, others follow quickly.

What would be helpful is if there was a video of this process. Haven’t found one yet.

If you do decide to time the cams, by any method, you must replace the cam sprocket bolts. Quite a few engines have had major damage due to broken, OEM bolts which are torque to yield, one use only.

Thanks Jerry, yes already on my list to buy from you. I’m putting my list together for gaskets, seals and other things I will be needing. I’ll be placing the order once I know all that I need.

Yes, what Jerry said. I used the old bolts while timing the cams. Once the timing was set, installed the new bolts.
