If you removed the cvvt hub on the exhaust cam then you will need the cam locking tool to set it up. Attaching the timing marks and where the tensioner needs to be set up.

Make sure you are using new headbolts and you oil the bolts so that they dont bind up. first step 20Nm seconde step 60Nm and finally 3rd step angle torque to 130 degrees.
