Of course the cams are still in and no messing around with timing and such - that's the genius of these tools The procedure is well explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_z0PmoRmT4 and the AGA tool video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YacOx2ydMbI

By the way, which insurance company are you using?
How thick are those bungee cords ?
The shop that did it for me used air applied to cylinders, and they have that AGA tool set. As for the warranty, i have Alpha Warranty Services alphawarranty.com , purchased it with the car 2 years ago, and it did paid off now with those valve stem seal replaced., good that i got it as if not i had to do it myself.
Thanks for those videos.
