RE: Will my old chains work?

Nice write ups everyone.I have a 98 saleen with a new pi head swap fresh from ford after shooting a spark plug out of the old pathetic heads. nice increase.I have a set of VT stage 1 camsI will be attempting to install here soon (no springs). not sure if i want to cheat and take only the valve covers off, hold the cam gear up, or take the timing cover offtoo and supposedly do itright with getting the timing correct. Does the oil pan have to come off to take the timing cover off? and whats up with degreeing the cams? Not much help here on Maui soI have been relying on all of you for my extra mod questions, even though this is like my second post. endless reading info on here.
