if you need to ask then you shouldn't install it.. in a nutshell, lube it up hardcore, slide it in, torque up the cam retaining bolt, make sure the crank is a TDC, slip on the chain and have the shiny links 9 spots a part (i think its 9!)

Good to hear it all went well. Dont forget to buy yourself that Gregory's manual - Best money I ever spent. I rebuilt the top end of my motor, pulled my tailshaft apart, fitted new door handles etc - all with very minimal knowledge and only a gregorys book !
