I founds some PDF in cam install and removal. dude this thing has lots of cautions in it. I just got to find the special tools to compress the springs and the wedge to secure the chain. I just need to find how to install the limitters for the phasers.

can you post the pdf or give a link to it

here ya go. the ford shop manual online. this link takes you to the head removal. just find the section for the cams alone. oh and i have the valve spring tool and know where you can get the timing chain tool for about half what ford wants for it. oh and it all does add up. i didn't know you got the phase limiters also. if you have any questions feel free to PM me.

it's really a very simple task. if you have 2 guys doing it you could do it w/o the timing chain tool. just have to make sure you don't let the chain fall or slip around.

Good luck Hector!!! You might message Greg for some tips

It really wasn't hard. I think it was because we didn't have the timing chain wedge. I think our timing was off a little bit. The car starts and idles fine but there is no tolerance on the cam install.

Oh hell yah. save me some time and cash. theres a guy at my job has a tool but its for the 2V 4.6. i don't know if its the same. I was actually thinking of making the wedge at work. i have the plastic/silicone/polyester... what ever that material is made of for the wedge and i just secure a rod to it. The Ford tech manual has a picture of it and i have some good pics from other sights i see the installs on. I rather buy the tools or rent them from some one. i got the beer and food if some one lets me borrow the special tools over the weekend.

I just want the pride of doing the work myself.

Heres some sights i found......

i just finished using my tools. if you need them let me know. if you can wait till next week i'll be there wed. and could bring the spring compressor and cam locking tool.

cool. that will be awesome. i won't see my cams till next week any way. just hit me up when your out here and we can meet up. PM me.

i'll be there from you'd have to get them wed or maybe thursday. my wife is getting surgery so wed would be preferable.

Any updates on the cam install?

not in yet. I just order them in the middle of last week. last update was on the 24th from UPS. it left LENEXA, KS. i hoping to install them soon as i get them doring the weekend.

Cams are in Tulsa and out for delivery. YEAH!!!!!!!

what's the word hector. did you get them done through all the rain and the rear bumper

I WANNA HEAR THEM IN PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have issues with my SCT tuner. I try to install the new Firmware and the tuner displays a message saying its the wrong one. Theirs only 2 on the web sight. one for the XP serial # and the other for the X3 serial #. The XP will not install plus I my serial don't start with XP. I email SCT about this problem and I hope to get a response soon. If not, I have to go back to Kirtis to fix my tuner. I bought mines from him and have a tune on file. I can't win.

if you need any help im always around! could always hire some of your friends!

I don't have much friend. I live alone. just mustang peeps and peeps at work.

ahahah im the same, only mustang peeps and a few leftovers from school. least you have a gf! im too ugly for one

no girl friend. just my left hand and right hand. thats why i'm dumping money into my car. LOL!!!

You know Hector, if you sit on your hands until they go numb, it feels like someone else is doing it for you!
