The head is removed, awaiting new head gasket. So I am preparing the valve clearances and want to know how to mock these parts up.
Head has valves, springs, shim bucket installed.
Can I simply install each camshaft in the correct position (using the small mark on the right side of the camshaft aligned in the 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock positions)?
Bolt down the camshaft holders and measure the clearance for both intake and exhaust cams?
I assume rotating the cam to be in it's optimal position would require leverage and the valves will slightly open when the cam holders are tightened.
Is there a better way to do this with the head removed and disassembled?
