Default Cam install help

Does anyone know where there is a DIY for installing cams on a Revup, the one EM-EFER started never got finished.

I understand the whole front end needs to come apart (i'm replacing the radiator aswell anyway), but there is no detailed instructions on installing the cams and setting the timing right.

Anyone able to help out? Thanks.

I'm not really scared of doing it, as i'm a marine engineer, and have done plenty of engine rebuilds. I just need a bit of help making sure i get it done in the right order.

I've got a couple pictures on my phone from when i did it, they'll probably give you a decent idea of what you're about to get into. pm your email address, hopefully it helps.

i have a DE manual in pdf form. You can find it online. If not email me and i'll send it to you.

It should be very similar to the HR even though it's not perfect. it will get you close enough that anyone with some mechanical skills should be able to get the rest of the way. The gears and chains all have markings on them to line up.
