You are going to need some specal
tools in order to get the gears timed right. There is a tool to lock down the cams and a tool to let you know where tdc is. When you have the tools lock the cams in place and the crank in place then remove the crank lock and turn the crank 1 and 3/4 turn clockwise then put the crank lock bolt back in and turn it clockwise till it stops and the timing should be set. If you can't turn the crank 2 full turns you have the cams off line.

I will just add that you must replace the friction discs when you have had the timing gears off.
