If I can do that, I can lock down the cams in the right place and retighten those bolts, and get the timing correct without removing the engine. I haven't had the chance to try it yet, but that's my current plan. I figure that if it fails, I'm no worse off.
Will not work as you need to rotate the engine too far. The cams need to come out of the engine before it is rotated.
