It's your call, when it's in the car you can hold it up better - but if it's out of the car you have more access to it.

i found it the easiest to do when the engine is out... it is easier to get to and its easier to keep from spinning. cams gears are the same you can hold the opposite end of them and tighten it down.

i did click it and its a forum, but of what??
and i had it on a stand, but when i tighten the bolts the cams move, or the crank pulley ... i need to torque it down and i cant since it moves, if i try and jam somethin in the flywheel to hold it, it only works for a lil then it spins again
