Haha, many of your viewers won’t catch that “Goes to 11” spinal tap reference. 😂

[@chetmarcotti4953]

ThNk for the tips on the cam install. You guys are cool dudes, that’s cool car dudes.

[@classicstangbrn8964]

I can't remember the last time I used press in front oil galley plugs, easy to tap and I put a plug with a 0.40 hole in the center plug to help oil the timing chain.

[@blakeneysanders4264]

Cool, awesome information and tips. Thanks guys. First 😅

[@stephenhotzjustdriveit]

Just one observation, depending my mood it can be easier to install the cam before the roatating assembly. But I also do it the way you did sometimes.

[@kennethstaszak9990]

Just to be clear, Its a key that goes in a keyway

[@user-mg2dz1fv7t]

Cam and Jeff how can I get the nasty idle my stock foxbody 302 had before someone moved the timing ?
Thank you kindly.

[@rungelangston6040]

You can set the timer at 0 you get the best of both

[@mach1driver630]

Thanks!

[@mach1driver630]

I've been enjoying the engine rebuild videos- nice job guys!

[@robertclymer6948]

Hi Jeff and Cam! Isn't a cam degree for checking the cam manufacturer did their job right with the correct grind and shipped you the right one you ordered? Making sure it matches the cam card? If at TDC and your timing chain marks are right you should be fine. Right?

[@HotRodReverend]

Ditto… I was always told to degree the cam to double check that you were sent the right cam, the specs match the card, etc. We’ve all degree’d performance cams and used adjustable timing sets. Even on stock applications I like to degree one in just to make sure I know timing events. To each their own I guess.

[@Paulie1232]

Just did the cam in my vette..

[@santacruz59]

Any part numbers?

[@onedream1soul]

Why do you have the cylinders labeled incorrectly. Fords are 1234 on the passenger side and 5678 on the driver side.

[@manejarlo6515]

Would be interesting to see if Melling ground the 4* retard that Ford ground into the stock cam.

[@MrGsxr10001]

That stupid music is enough to stop me from watching you videos. Its so unnecessary.
