just got done doing this earlier. Here's some tips:
1)take your time in getting #1 to TDC, it'll help keep the latter headaches down
2)make sure the cam lobes both face away from the piston
3)take great care of those cam seats (the ones with 2 bolts on top)
4)when reinstalling, set the cams down first, then keep the sprockets on the chain and use the bolt/washer to line them up. (as long as you're careful, it wont mess up the threading)
any questions, e-mail me!
