Hey guys, just wondering if there are any specific things I should look out for/know about before installing a new timing set on my 98 cobra (doing this in addition to a head gasket replacement):
1 - Do the tensioners need to be soaked in oil prior to installation (read that in another thread somewhere)?
2 - The instructions from FRPP indicate the installation needs to be done with the cam followers removed. Is this actually necessary since I won't be removing or degreeing my cams? I am sticking with factory timing.
3 - Will the cams move/rotate on their own from the valve spring pressure when the old secondary chains are removed?
4 - Any other helpful tips I should know before doing this?
