Agreed. Without cams the valves won`t be opened. You need to pull and hold the chain aside so it won`t get jammed in the crankcase while someone else slowly rotates the crankshaft. Pull the plugs to make it easier to turn the crank.
EDIT: now that I`ve reread what you wrote, I`m not sure if you replaced the camshafts. If so, I`d pull the whole assembly off, rotate the crankshaft to TDC and put everything back on.
