Re: V6 Valve Timing

 the front hubs off the camshafts to adjust them but am now puzzled on
 how this adjustment proceeds.  I appears that, because of the pin, the
 hubs only fit on the sleeves one way.  Because of this and that the
 sleeves have the two bolts into the sprocket, I wonder how I can adjust
 the cam independent of the sprocket.
 
 What am I missing here?  Any advise to the amateur would be appreciated.

The front plate is removeable so that you can remove the cams to adjust the 
valve _clearance_ _WITHOUT_ changing the valve _timing_. To change the timing 
you must move the belt.
