[QUOTE="94kingcbra, post: 630214, member: 9140"] Hey , guys, I am working on a 2001 Cobra with a 03 swap in it. It spun two bearings that caused a severe rod knock. We have a Ford replacement short block that we are swapping the heads, intake/supercharger, and everything else to. We dropped the engine, trans and the whole front suspension minus shocks all together. We disassembled Everything, and now are the process of transferring parts to the new short block. We have the heads on, engine at TDC, and are trying to install the timing chains. On all Data, it says you need a special tool to hold the cams in place at 12 O'Clock, I can see why, because the cam tries to turn from the spring pressure from the lobe being on its lift portion. Anybody got any tricks to keep the cams in place so I can install these chains? Or do I need the tool....? [/QUOTE]
