Default Outlaw 450 Cam Timing

I am currently rebuilding the engine on an '07 Outlaw 450 due to a crank pin bearing failure. I am having trouble locating a correct cam timing procedure. Can someone lead me in the right direction?

Can't remember on the 450 whether it has the crank lock bolt or not. If it does,it's a bolt with a washer at the front lower end of the crank case. Pull the bolt out,remove the washer,turn the engine until the notch in the crank lines up with the hole,install only the bolt to lock it in tdc position.This was mainly for adjusting valves,but can help on cam timing. If this doesn't help here's a reasonable 450 manual. Found the 2008/2009 manual,but the 450 is basically the same. https://www.tradebit.com/filedetail....0-mxr-2008-atv
