Cam Installation?

Hi, I just reviewed all the steps to do a T-belt job and realized that it will be a bit more intensive to install new cams while I have the truck apart. I'm thinking I have to remove the valve cover to put new cams in?

 

I ordered 12 new lifters with the euro cams from NISMO. I found some literature on cam installation for Nissan GA16DE engines that seems to have a chain belt: http://www.jimwolftechnology.com/wolfpdf/C...OR%20GA16DE.PDF

 

Not sure if I should follow this for the 94 pathy. Any advice or warnings from those of you who know how to do this job? This is my first time taking an engine apart, let alone doing a T-belt job. I'm hoping I'm not getting in over my head with this cam install attempt...

One more question, is the cam install job related to the T-belt job? I was thinking I had to do them at once because of the cam seals, but could I do this without even taking apart the section of the engine for a T-belt job? That would make these two projects a little less daunting to do them separately.

To install new Cams you will have to pull the T-Belt... Fact you will have to strip down the entire front if the engine, removing the upper timing Cover, front and back. Included in this will be the removal Plenum Chamber and both Valve Covers, and the lifters.

 

Clearance to remove the cam rear cover and then get the 19MM Socket in there to remove the rear cam bolt will be tight....
