need cam timing info 2002 Ranger Edge 4x4 4.0 SOHC

[Windfire]

Hey everyone I am new to the site.
so here is my delimia, I own a 2002 Ranger Edge 4x4.
I had to redo my heads after one blew and the machine shop discovered cracks in between the valves on the drivers side head. so had to get a new head.
I have replaced everything the timing gears the chains and the tensiors. but now I am stuck, I don't know the cam timing specs on this engine. I have the special tool for the job from a friend of mine but he lost the instructions. could some one please help me with what to do next.
also the engine is currently out of the vehicle.

I dont know how to really explain it without the engine right in front of me. However, you can buy the manual for a couple dollars on ebay and probably download it online.

I replaced my tensioners, and at the same time I advanced the cam timing. This will give you more torque and better vacuum for the brake system. The engine is designed to make power up to 6000 RPM, which is kind of rediculous, I mean who is going to run their engine that hard on the street. Advancing the cam timing will lower the peak RPM to somewhere around 5700. I advanced my cam timing 2 degrees. It's extremely easy, you'll be able to figure it out as soon as you set everything up for the standard TDC timing setup. Once it's set up, just loosen the tools and rotate the crank however many degrees you want to advance, then tighten the tool in place, then tighten your cam bolts.

You may want to get some timing tape from a speed shop, that makes it much easier to accurately set your 2 or 3 degrees.

WIth my cams advanced I have a much smoother idle, more snappy torquey power at low RPM, stronger brake pedal with less effort, Just don't advance too much. you could end up with detonation problems.
