by the way!

REPLACE YOUR TIMING BELT IDLER PULLEY BOLT

go to ACE and find the strongest bolt you can, or maybe even get a stud and nut.

they are weak, and when they break, you bend your valves.
I do not have a dimple set, i had to use my imagination: i used a big socket, a smaller sharpened socket and my press. U get the rest of the picture, worked pretty good for 16 gauge plate.
I never heard of the idler bolt being weak, i'll look into that, thanks for the tip! And yes, rb's are interference motors.

Very little work done today, still i got to remove the factory bushings to make room for my ES poly bushings and put a layer of primer on my lca to at least prevent rust, gloss black will come later.
