Remove the side cover. Remember, you didn't say why you wanted to take out the cam so this might not answer your question. Rotate the crankshaft to the point where the timing marks on the crank gear and the camshaft gear line up. The timing mark on the crank will be on a gear tooth directly opposite the throw or offset on #1 rod journal. Then remove the distribuitor cap and make note of where the rotor button points. This is so when you put the cam back with the rotor button in the ignition will be in time with the valves and pistons. Mark the camshaft bearing caps (At least the 2 in the center for their position because they will look alike.) This is so they can all be put back in the same place. Note that there is an oil channel on the upper side of the cap when you remove them. This has to be on the top when you put them back to properly oil the camshaft bearings. You should be able to remove the camshaft after you remove the caps. Unless, of course if your engine is stuck. I have seen a frozen governor shaft render all normal efforts to remove the camshaft futile.
