Gear install, and more paint


Torquing the cam gear 10mm tripplesquare bolt, to 50 foot pounds. The cam gear retainer also called the "dog" in the manual, is best held with a 32mm box end wrench. It was pretty hard to do with a big adjustable wrench.

Also painted the cap from the rear of the cam tower, and the engine lifting ring that is attached to it. Decided to go with red for the ring, kind of like a tow hook.
