Fitted the new Extreme cams, positioned the exhaust and inlet cams by the marks on the sprockets, made sure that the notches on the end of the cams were in position with the inlet facing upwards at 12 o'clock and the exhaust at about 11 o'clock. Also checked that the lobes were in position.
Fitted the cam chain tensioner, checked that the head pin was in good condition and also that the rubber head was ok. Fitted a new gasket and bolted in to place, fitted the chain guide, then removed the tie wraps and manually turned the engine by the crank.
Will need to check the timing with a dial gauge to properly set up the cam timing. Have ordered a timing wheel, dial gauge and a piston stop, will finalise the timing when these arrive.
