I would say no to hurting the cam bearing cause flat tappet cams walk back and forth. Imo ill ask my machine shop guy in the morning and give you a buzz.

Hey Mike, welcome to the Mustang World! 5.0's dont have flat tappet came, they are hydraulic rollers!

I think he was saying that Flat tappet cams walk by design, so he doesn't see why it would hurt a roller setup.

Guess I read into that wrong then.

BTW, I may have a Cam Retainer and Cam Gear if you need one. I'll have to check when I'm out my Dad's this weekend. Also remember the Red Loctite is your friend on the bolt for the Cam Retainer.

I just ordered a new timing set and cam. I'm pretty sure I have a spare cam retainer laying around. I appreciate the offer. Do you have any loctite?:)

[Viper_ed]

Do you have any loctite?:)

Yes, but so does Advanced Auto and numerous other Auto Parts stores. It wouldn't be worth the trip to come get it. Ask Wick, I'd be suprised if he didn't have any. Just be sure to use the RED.

Wasn't sure, figured if you hung around Wick you might not be the sharpest tool in the shed!
