7 Observe the markings on the right-hand cylinder head
camshaft bearing caps. Each bearing cap is
marked (1) to identify its location. The markings have
the following meanings:
• The raised feature must always be oriented
toward the centre of the cylinder head.
• The I indicates the intake camshaft.
• The E indicates the exhaust camshaft.
• The number 1, 3, 5 indicates the cylinder
position from the fr ont of the engine.
8 Apply a liberal amount of engine oil to the camshaft bearing caps.

Stage 1: .................................................... 8.0 – 12.0 Nm
13 Loosen the centre intake camshaft bearing cap bolts
1 and 2, and the centre exhaust camshaft bearing cap
bolts 3 and 4.
14 Retighten the centre camsha ft bearing cap bolts 1, 2,
3 and 4 to the correct torque specification.

1 Select the correct camshaft for the particular
installation location. ID markings can be found on the
rear end of each camshaft. The ID markings are
defined as follows:
• The first five digits refer to the date and time of
production.
• Example = 3L18H.
• Digits six through nine refer to engine
production code.
• LY7 = Alloytec 190 engine.
• The last two digits refer to position:
• LI = left-hand intake.
• LE = left-hand exhaust.
• RI = right-hand intake.
• RE = right-hand exhaust.

2 Apply a liberal amount of engine oil to the camshaft journals and the left-hand cylinder head camshaft
carriers.

3 Position the camshafts (1) on the cylinder head and assemble the camshaft spro ckets to the camshafts.
NOTE
Install the camshaft sprocket bolts but do not
tighten at this stage.

Reinstall
1 Apply a liberal amount of commercially available
camshaft / lifter prelube or equivalent to the pivot
pocket (1), roller (2) and valve slot (3) areas of the
camshaft followers.
Figure 6A1 – 360
2 Place the rocker arm in position on the valve tip and stationary hydraulic lash adjuster (SHLA). The
rounded head end of the arm seats on the SHLA
while the flat end seats on the valve tip.
CAUTION
• The rocker arm (1) must be positioned
squarely on the valve tip so the full width
of the roller will completely contact the
camshaft lobe.
• If the rocker arms are being reused, they
must be reinstalled in their original
location.
3 Clean the camshaft journals and carriers with a clean, lint-free cloth.
4 Reinstall the camshafts, refer to 3.19 Camshaft.

Reinstall
1 Fill the stationary hydraulic lash adjuster (SHLA) with
clean engine oil. Take precautions to prevent
scratching the pivot s phere area of the SHLA.
2 Lubricate the SHLA bores in the cylinder head with clean engine oil.
3 Install the SHLA in the cylinder head (2).
4 Apply a liberal amount of commercially available camshaft/lifter prelube to the SHLA pivot spheres.
5 Install the rocker arms, refer to 3.20 Rocker Arm.
CAUTION
Ensure each lash adjuster (1) is filled with
clean engine oil and the adjuster does not
tip over, plunger down, before the
installation. The loss of oil in the adjuster
lower pressure chamber, or the dry
stroking/cycling of the adjuster plunger, will
allow air to enter the high pressure chamber
of the valve lifter. Air in the high pressure
chamber of the adjuster may not be purged
causing cavitation and extensive engine
component damage.
