make sure that the marks on the cam gears are at TDC (ajacent to the marks on the valve cover) and the hash mark on the crank pulley is alined with the "t" marking on the bottom timing belt cover.
And don't forget to bleed the lifters.

I tell everyone to do that anytime I hear the phrase "cam install."

I plan to do my cam install later this year whenever I can afford them. Maybe I'll take photos?

Nice job gettin' 'er done! I have these same cams and was going to do them myself but English Racing has a great price, plus I'll get the car tuned at the same time.

I figured do it all at once since they are ~200 miles away, and I would be worried driving that far on something I might've installed incorrectly. It kills the satisfaction of doing my own install but definitely worth it in time savings and peace of mind.
