I've done a few but not twin-cams ... just wanted to make sure there weren't any problems to watch for.
It's the last stage where you need that special tool to adjust the crankshaft pulley that is worrying me ...

The biggest problem is getting access to the belt covers. It's very tight so the engine needs to be shifted off the mounts.
