I need the torque specs on the camshaft gear bolts and the valve timing marks on the car listed above with a 16/1.8 L engine.

Timing marks rely on the tool used to hold the sprockets as they are not set inline but offset by a small amount. Marks 3 and 4 are the timing marks with the engine at #1 TDC.

Torque for both actuator bolts is 37 lb ft + 150°+ 15°
