Let me get this straight.. This is the only place i need to put RTV?



The only other concern I have is how to remove the cam followers. Do i need a special ford tool for this? Or will a flat screwdriver work? Im a bit of a newbie at this kind of stuff but it does not seem to difficult. Do i have to crank the motor around to remove them just like regular push rod rockers? Or will they all just pop out. And for the Cams all i need is the new cam bolts right? The cams will just bolt into my existing cam gears with the PI cam bolts?
And is the Cam retention tool is as easy to use as everyone says it is?
I just need to get a few things cleared up before i dig in haha! My biggest fear is messing up timing with the retention tool. I don't want to have to mess with timing and I don't even know where to get one yet...
These would be the cams right? http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustan...s-xe262ah.html

Sooo I know how to get the cam followers off now! Seems pretty easy. Jam in the cam wedge first make a mark for timing just in case. Snap off the followers pop out the lash adjusters remove cam caps slide off cam gear carefully, put in new cam then do the cam caps put the gear back on and align to keyway. Then put the rockers and lash adjusters in as you crank the engine around and make sure that there is no tension on them! I think i am okay then right? I can crank the engine to any location i want as long as the teeth are lined up right?

The manifold is almost off. Just down to the stupid EGR tube connected to the exhaust manifolds. Bugger to get off. Im thinking im going to do my X pipe soon so when its off i will quickly unbolt the EGR tube. Other than that everything seems to be going smooth. This 4.6 doesn't seem as bad as everyone says it is!
