NOTE: During timing chain and sprocket removal, position the
crankshaft 90 degrees past Top Dead Center (TDC) to make sure the pistons will
not contact the valves upon assembly.

the crankshaft sprocket, if necessary.
To install:
chain, it should be no more than 23.15 in. (588mm). Inspect the chain guides for
wear or cracks and the timing sprockets for teeth or key wear. Replace
components as necessary.
crankshaft keyway should be at 3 o'clock aligned with the main bearing cap split
line to prevent piston and valve damage.

wrench flats provided on the camshafts to hold the shaft and tighten the bolts
to 75 ft. lbs. (102 Nm).
