12 Tighten the camshaft bearing cap bolts to the correct
torque specification and in the sequence shown.
Camshaft bearing cap
bolt torque specification:
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.
Camshaft bearing cap
bolt torque specification:
Stage 2: .................................................... 8.0 – 12.0 Nm
15 Install the right-hand cylinder head camshaft

Cylinder Head Measurement
NOTE
For all cylinder head and associated component
specifications, refer to 5 Specifications.
Camshaft Journal Clearance
1 Install the camshaft bearing cap in the cylinder head without the camshaft.
2 Install the camshaft cap bolts and tight en to the correct torque specification
Camshaft bearing cap attach ing bolt........ 8.0 – 12.0 Nm.
3 Measure the camshaft bearings using an inside micrometer.
4 Subtract the camshaft journal diam eter from the camshaft bearing diameter. This will provide the running
clearance. If the running clearance exceeds specifications and the camshaft journals are within specification,
replace the cylinder head.
Camshaft Journal Alignment
1 Ensure the camshafts are serviceable, refer to 3.19 Camshaft for measuring procedures.
2 Inspect the cylinder head camshaft bearing surfaces for any imperfections or scratches that could inhibit correct
camshaft clearances. Repair minor imperfections or scratches.
3 Install the camshafts in the cylinder head.
4 Install the camshaft bearing caps.
5 Install the camshaft cap bolts and tighten to the correct torque specification.
Camshaft bearing cap attach ing bolt........ 8.0 – 12.0 Nm.
6 Ensure the camshafts spin freely in the cylinder head. If the camshaft does not run freely, replace the cylinder
head.
Deck Flatness Inspection
1 Ensure the cylinder head decks are clean and free of gasket material.
2 Inspect the surface for any imperfections or scratches
that could inhibit correct cylinder head gasket sealing.
3 Place a straight-edge (1) diagonally across the cylinder head (2) deck face surface.
4 Measure the clearance between the straight-edge
and the cylinder head deck face using a feeler gauge
at four points along the straight-edge.
5 If the warpage is less t han 0.05 mm, the cylinder
head deck surface does not require resurfacing.
6 If the warpage is between 0.05±0.20 mm or any imperfections or scratches that could inhibit correct
cylinder head gasket sealing are present, the cylinder
head deck surface requires resurfacing.
7 If resurfacing is requir ed the maximum amount that
can be removed is 0.25 mm.
8 If the cylinder head deck surface requires more than 0.25 mm material removal the head must be
replaced.

Assemble
1 Install the cylinder head coolant threaded plugs (1)
and tighten to the correct torque specification.
Cylinder head thre aded plug .............................. 31.0 Nm
Figure 6A1 – 388
2 Install the cylinder head oil gallery expansion plugs (1).
Figure 6A1 – 389
CAUTION
• Never reuse a valve stem oil seal. Always
use new seals when assembling the
cylinder head.
• Force should only be applied to the valve
spring contact area of the new valve stem
oil seal during installation.
3 Fit the valve stem oil seal s onto the guides using Tool
No. EN-46116 (1).
4 Push and twist the valve stem oil seal into position on the valve guide until the s eal positively locks on the
guide using Tool No. EN-46116.
5 Lubricate the valve stem and valve guide ID with clean engine oil.

Reinstall
Right-hand Side (Bank 1) Cylinder Head
The reinstallation procedure for the right-hand side cylinder head assembly is the reverse of the removal procedure,
noting the following:
1 Ensure all fasteners are tightened to the correct torque specification.
2 Using crankshaft rotation Tool No. EN-46111 (1), align the crankshaft sprocket timing mark (2) with the
indexing mark (3) on the oil pump housing.
Figure 6A1 – 396
3 Ensure the deck face is clean and the cylinder head locating pins are securely mounted in the cylinder
block deck face.
4 Install a new right-hand cylinder head gasket (1) using the deck face locating pins for retention.
Figure 6A1 – 397
5 Align the cylinder head with the locating pins.
6 Place the cylinder head in position on the deck face.
NOTE
Do not allow oil on the cylinder head bolt
bosses.
CAUTION
Do not reuse the old M11 cylinder head bolts
(1 to 8 inclusive).
7 Install new M11 cylinder head bolts (1) eight places and tighten in the sequence shown and to the correct
torque specification.
