Note FORD firing order, 1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2, with cylinders on right bank numbered 1-2-3-4, and left bank numbered 5-6-7-8.
Another procedure that has been posted, When exh begins to open, set int, and when int begins to close, set exh.
A third procedure, been posted here, and appears in old Motor Manuals, and in old Ford service manuals...
With 4X & 1N valves OPEN, SET 3X-8N-6N-7X-3N-2X
With 3X & 8N valves OPEN, SET 1X-7N-5X-2N-4X-1N
With 1X & 7N valves OPEN, SET 8X-5N-6X-4N
Other sequences for setting valves have been posted or published. One involves DEGREEING the valves... This is more than I'm going to post here.
Watch for errors here - I've been known to make mistakes.
Just opinion.
