Or, do I have to go through all the steps of removing the cam housing, cams, chains, etc.?
you need to get the crank to top dead center on the firing stroke and lock it with a pin. then put the correct cam tool on cyl 1-3 to lock the cams. 5 chain is the sing le cam lock tool, 3 chain is the dual cam lock tool. then you can remove the tensioners
