Default Cam installation.... just makin sure

Alright summit racing shipped me the wrong bearings 2 times in a row so my engine has been apart for a while now, i THINK i remember how the cam goes but I just wanna make positively sure!! So it goes through all 5 cam bearings then a plate goes over one end, then the timing chain gears chain and cover, and on the backside you just leave it and put the cover on, right? Im just makin sure its not gunna like slide side to side in the engine, just makin sure I didn't loose and forget about some stabalizer thing while I was waiting for my 3rd set of bearings least I got em for free. so any conformation would be sweet.

Remember to use a dab of loctite on the cam retainer bolts.
