  All you really need to do is jockey the cam and the crank so that the
crank sits with all pistons at midway.  Be sure the pump is near #1
TDC rather than 180 out.  Then set the cam and rotate the crank for
or aft to TDC.  Set the pump to the right tooth (pin in sprocket), almost
tighten the cam bolt, tension the belt, check orientation of all again and
tighten the cam bolt.  If any valves are bent you'll have clearance on the
cam to lifter.  If it were solid lifters you'd have TOO MUCH clearance.
With hydraulics, you'd just have clearance, which is too much. :)

  Nothing for the right price.  :)

  It should bolt right up without any hassles.  A few connections may take
a little but the big things should bolt up.
