    Touché... Just goes to show how much attention I pay to "things" lol. Or just the blatant lack of sleep I've gotten the past few days

    Man coop I'm so pissed . Bent the valves again. 2 times within a year. And I just had the heads built with 1mm oversized, cams, brain crower springs, and solid lifters. Guess I didn't set the timing right . Me nor my mechanic could keep The belt tensioned for some reason. The belt would lose tension as you drove it not while its just at idle. Idk man.

    I think you need to develop a chain driven timing setup... You seem to have little to no luck with the belt. Sorry to hear that man, I hope you get it all worked out.

    P.s.

    If you had a ticketed mechanic working on it, I'd recommend having him cover the repair cost of his inability to do it right the first time.

    Yea and he shakes his head and says. Idk what to tell ya man. Idk why the belt isn't staying tensioned. I haven't had any luck with this since I've owned it. But it is too much cash invested to just Sell it for nothing .

    It didn't stay tensioned when he done it because he didn't set the tensioner pulley correctly. So yeah it was his fault it failed the first go around.
