Bought one today, as in previous link!

Thanks bigtimecube and Marks DTM Calib for pics and info. Also AndyB for your help.

Had to remove the cams to take the head off, so that means couldn't use a locking tool. I have been using the sprocket bolt to adjust the cam, thought I might get told off for doing that!

The instructions I have been following http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=106562.0 state that once I have fed the belt round and installed the drivers side pulley, I need to rotate the engine, however I know that when I remove the locking tool the cam will spring back and the belt will go loose between the two cams, are there any other guides of how to install the belt? Am I best to tighten the adjuster before rotating the engine?

Festive thanks to you all!

The belt will be on by the time you come to turn the engine, so the cam can't move ...... the teeth on the belt will stop it from springing back.
