Hi Greg
The gears are fixed to the shafts the position is not important. the top sprocket is free on it's shaft. and will be locked by two radial screws and pinch screw in the end of the shaft.
Each cylinder is done in turn
The cam is be locked in the overlap position ( TDC exhaust stroke ) then the piston is positioned at TDC exhaust using a dial gauge through the spark plug hole, In this position the cam sprocket is then locked to the shaft. the ignition is timed by a separate flange on the rear of the cam sprocket.
