The tension would press the cam into the bearings and changes the measurement. We are talking about 1/100 of a millimeter.
Otherwise a very good technical guy but he makes the odd mistake which we can learn from.

Valve clearances at 105.000 km. since 30.000 km. at 24 min's.
I'm fairly sure it's 70.000 km. since the valves have been checked, Zams channel Marty replies;
"Wenn es nicht schon seit 70 Tkm funktioniert hätte, wäre ich auch nicht entspannt. Aber "so" sehe ich das eher als Feature als als Fail. Ansonsten habe ich von LKM noch nichts dubioses gehört. Vielleicht "höre" ich an den falschen Stellen. "
Hopefully my german was good enough to translate his findings correctly.
Thanks Joe for pointing out NOT to release the tension of the cam chain, i have not done so as well because i could not see a clear reason for it.
He also notices the camshafts for in and ex are swapped ( tuned? ) at 26 min. someone comments about this and he replies; bought secondhand at 30.000 km.
