And yeah, follow the Tightening patern and loosening pattern in the fsm/any sentra repair manual.. even a honda repair manual its the same.

yeah turns out none of the valves were bent...and the cam was snapped due to improper torque patterns...the pistons did not have a scratch on them...but i found a little piece of the cam embedded in the cam journal...i fail haha but hey its a learning process right...? it comes with doing your own shit, i will say this though i wouldnt trade this experience for anything, cuz now i know to quadruple check everything lol, yeah thanx for helpin out and not flaming me guys...
