[QUOTE="glittle75, post: 547936, member: 8675"] they go on the way your factory gears come off. there not holes, there a hole. in the center, a big one. theres a threeaded hole in your cam, you put on the spacer, then the cam gear, then the bolt with washer goes on. in screws into the actual cam, the cam gear is then samwiched between the washer and spacer and thats how it "bolts on" the keyway on the cam and key on the gear is how you line them up. unless your putting in big cams, then grind the keyway off the gear and degree them. just the spacer and washer on the bolt will hold them in place, as long as you torque them correctly. cam gear that is solid goes on the driver side, cam gear that has all the holes goes on the passenger side. make sure when your lining up the timing marks on the drivers side, its the SMALL RECESSED DOT that lines up with the link in the chain, NOT the big bulge for the cam position sensor. hang on ill go to the garage and snap some pics to make it easier on ya.
