Yep, I used that one to do mine and it was very good.

Small note, you dont need to remove the radiator or condenser to pull the cam out, you have enough room.

ah, I take that back. Had to remove the rad but the condenser stayed, which made things much simpler.

cam install is pretty easy..... let me know if u need help with anything.

also make sure u align your sprockets up on the dots, then you can start pulling the gears off and remove cam.(of course your gonna have the oil pump covering most of it)
