9. Loosely install the five cylinder head nuts.
10. In a crisscross pattern, tighten the four cylinder head
cap screws (from step 8) initially to 20 ft-lb; then
increase to 30 ft-lb, and finally to 37 ft-lb. Tighten the
8 mm nut (from step 9) to 21 ft-lb; then using a criss-
cross pattern, tighten the 6 mm nuts (from step 9) to
8.5 ft-lb. Tighten the two cylinder-to-crankcase nuts
(from step 4) to 8 ft-lb.
 NOTE: If both cylinders have been removed, repeat
steps 1-10 for the remaining cylinder.
11. With the timing inspection plug removed and the front

 NOTE: At this point, oil the camshaft bearings, cam
lobes, and the three seating journals on the cylinder.
13. With the cam lobes directed down (toward the piston),
maneuver the camshaft/sprocket assembly through the
chain and towards its seating position; then loop the
chain over the sprocket.
 NOTE: Note the position of the alignment marks on
the end of the camshaft. They must be parallel to the
valve cover mating surface. If rotating the camshaft is
necessary for alignment, rotate the sprocket inside
the chain until the alignment pin can be engaged in
the sprocket with the camshaft properly aligned to
the head.
