Are you doing the IMS bearing? I just did this on the Saturday before Easter and I used the cam lock included with the IMS bearing puller; you shouldn't need to buy an additional lock. It will include one for the five-chain motor and one for the three-chain motor. As per the instructions, you will turn the crank until the motor is at TDC, lock the crank, and you should then be able to install the appropriate cam lock on the passenger side bank.
