M276 Bi-Turbo, Cam timing tension

I'm getting ready to clean/seal both Cam Timing Cover. While I'm in there I'm replacing the oil check valve and both timing chain tensioner. When I replace the timing tensioner do I set the crankshaft to 40 degree Before Top Dead Center (BTDC) on Cylinder #1. What about Cylinder 2 do I need to set the timing or is it already set from Cylinder 1?
