i need some info from ford mechanic that has done the timing of the cams after doing the chain cassettes. i have all data and haynes manual but need clairification on position using the cam tools. exact question is do i have to set the drivers side cam with #4 piston @tdc or still on #1 tdc and set both cams at the same time and position? hoping for some help as it runs after replacing 5 exhaust and 2 intake valves and 4 guides as well as all the chains and gears and tensioners and gasket, but seems to be off time which is hard to do using the cam holding/positioning tools thanks again Steve
