Short answer is yes. Longer answer: Removing the cam cover requires removing at least one of the rocker boxes from the cylinder head to release the forces being exerted on the cams by the valve springs. The other cylinder/piston combo would have to be at TDC on the compression stroke to avoid removing it's rocker box. (It's service manual time) |
