Again, you do NOT have to loosen the cam gear bolts.
Hold the cams some way. I do not mean just the bar in the back, that is stupid just to use that and could break the cams. I wouldn't recommend the way I did it either (so I won't say what it was in this post), but it worked. Ford sells a tool for doing it or you can make your own relatively easily.
In any case, loosening the cam gear bolts is unneeded and potentially could cause problems as well. Just do what you are supposed to do and use a tool or something to hold everything from moving.
And of course I'm talking non-vct here. I have no idea if vct requires something to be done different. VCT sucks and if you have it, you should swap a non-vct engine in.
