Of course they know, they just don't plan on explaining it to you.

This is probably one of the most complicated belts to set up because the cams are timed 180 degrees out of each other and it also requires a set of special tools designed to hold the cams in the correct position. It has no timing marks. The setup tools alone cost over $200 so you may want to think twice about tackling this one.
