i am currently installing a cam into a 350 and reverted back to an old question i posted a while back when i was doing the same thing. heres the post
http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...ain+adjustment

if you look at posts 7 (corn) and 8 (rage n rat), they both show the valvetrain sequence, but they are completely diffrent from eachother. one of them is incorrect.

the problem now is that i adjusted them according to the # 8 post and my engine has valvetrain noise and the headers glow red hot. did i get screwed on this? im looking for expert advice on this one.
