timing them according to the marks isnt hard, its that fact that the marks allow big discrepancies between the 2 banks (one side will have 185psi, the other 205 during a comp test).

having to do it with 2 cams was HORRIBLE (that and the fact that a fully built PI 4.6 WITH cams, TF intake manifold not the plenum, 75mm TB, longtubes, etc only made 286rwhp...). i would not want to do it AGAIN with the intakes on a 32V, and THEN have to do it with the short chains for the exhaust.

think about it, if they didnt even do it on the HAND BUILT Ford GT engine, it MUST be a huge PITA...
