Figure 1- Here's how the new cams look installed.

Push the tensioner back in and use the retainer clip to hold the tensioner in place.

Re-install the tensioner. Remove the retainer clip to tension the timing chain.

Hand crank the engine SLOWLY to allow the tensioner to fully tension the timing chain.

Verify that the engine is still at TDC (check the crank pulley to make sure it's 2nd to left mark).

Torque the cam towers, oil squirters, cam sprocket bolts, and rocker arm stoppers if you have them.

Remember not to over tighten the cam tower bolts - the torque specs for those are really low. We torqued them to about 7 ft/lbs. Align the crank angle sensor and re-install it.
