To set the valves on a 351 Windsor engine, start by ensuring the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder number one. Loosen the rocker arm adjuster for the cylinder you're working on, then turn the adjuster until there is a slight resistance when the pushrod can no longer be turned by hand, typically around 1/4 to 1/2 turn past zero lash. Repeat this process for each cylinder in the firing order, ensuring to adjust them in the correct sequence. Finally, double-check your adjustments after rotating the engine through a few cycles to ensure everything operates smoothly.

What kind of damage can a broken timing belt do?
Depends on if it's an interference or a non-interference engine. In an interference engine, the range of motion of the valves overlap with the range of motion of the pistons. If the timing belt breaks, these parts will no longer move in synch with each other, and the pistons can smash into the valves, seriously damaging both set of components. In a non-interference engine the valves will always clear the pistons, and the engine will simply not run, w/o any further damage,.
What is the ignition timing for a 351 W engine?
The ignition timing for a Ford 351 Windsor (351 W) engine typically ranges from 10 to 14 degrees before top dead center (BTDC) at idle, depending on the specific model and modifications. It's essential to consult the vehicle's service manual for the recommended timing settings, as factors like engine condition, fuel type, and aftermarket modifications can influence the optimal timing. Additionally, timing may need to be adjusted based on operating conditions and performance goals.
