So I put in ford racing hot rod cams and after tune the car ran for a sec and then loud valve noise. pulled the valve cover and there was a broken follower, driver side closest to the firewall and the middle valve. So I swapped the follower, started the car and it ran smooth for a sec and loud valvetrain noise again on same side. Gave up for the night, just looking for advice.

Phaser bolt torqued to 30ft lbs and 90 degrees
Cam hold down bolts torqued to 89 inch pounds in sequence

Advice......?

I would guess something is installed incorrectly. You probably know this and I have never done cams do IDK. Might be time to tearit down and start all over or take it to a shop.

Sorry about your luck. It's super frustrating when my car has something happen to it and I cannot figure it out. 9 times out of 10 it's something I screwed up.
