Cam Timing Help!!!!!

I had the Head off my 2008 MCS and obviously it needs to go back on...

I have the special timing tools kit that you need...

Does anyone have a walkthrough or a video or pictures or anything I need to know before I wing it...

P.S. I don't have a manual and I don't want to wait for one to ship in. I want to get this motor back together ASAP... I have that CD disk manual thing (I have no idea how to work it) but I have no intension on getting like a Bently manual or anything like that...

Search the how tos and the different forums for Chain Replacement. At least for starters. As you are aware, I'm sure, you don't want to get this wrong.

Here is another thread I found informative.

You should really consider the Bentley manual, it's worth having and you'll need a bunch of torque specs. Check Amazon or ebay.
