i suppose for future reference, I found it easier to set the cams where they are supposed to be at TDC loosened the cam caps a little just to get them to slope down to get the sprockets on. Then i tightened the sprockets just hand tight, then slowly torqued the cam caps to spec and finished up with the sprockets.
