The cams sit in a kind of relaxed state when in the right place, then the crank has to be obviously in the proper relation to them to put the chain on, so you might have to rotate the crank some. Just be careful, you don't want a piston to hit an open valve (duh!). Can you post any pics of its current state?
I think I figured it out but I'm still not 100% sure I got it right I'll put up some picks . Thank you! I offered a Toyota Mechanic $200 to stop over to see If I have it right . Never happened
