help with camhaft installation
i am putting a new cam, ppushrods, and timing chain on a friend of mine's 302 bronco i have worked on chevys b4 and i have a pretty good idea of what im doing, this is the first ford small block i have worked on (i have worked on FE's) i have heard that u dont have to adjust the valves on a fsb but i wanted to make sure. also do i have to set the lifter preload on this 302 the same way i would on a small block chevy? i have a really good idea of what im doing but i just want to make sure because its not my car.
Thanks,
