The new cams have the small bolt in the end of the cam and unlike the older cams, I could not get the bolt to hold the cam while removing the pin like Kevin suggested. For some reason, I could not get that to work.

On the old cams you had a tool that would hold and rotate the end of the cam. Not so on the newer cams.

The only way I could do it on my motor was to stick a small fillips screw driver in an adjacent hole when I removed the pin. I could then use that screwdriver to rotate the cam in relation to the chain sprocket.

Yea, yea, I had all the rockers in, etc, etc. Now my motor has a high lift cam with racing springs, so that added to the problem.
