PS I still think your an idiot. Nothing is more correct then a service manual, and it doesn't use your method, no wood used.
Welll uh oh I do work on cars for a living. Sorta. Oil changes and tires mainly. There would be NO hp gain. And you're right, both non-vct and vct zetecs should be in the junk listing. If I wasn't so lazy, I'd throw mine away.
PS Love you too. You're right nothing is more correct than a service manual. And what da ya know, I have the 1996 Ford Service manual right here. And guess what? It says NOTHING about loosening the cam gear bolts. No the wood I used is not the correct way, but it worked. I do not recommend it. I recommend Ford tool or equivelant part number : T74P-6256-B
