Ok, and another thing i have noticed is that the car drives very funny…it seems to have an alighnment problem, it pulls both ways! If i let go of the wheel to test it, depending on where the wheel was left it will pull hard in that direction…hard to describe! I can never get it to drive a true line, its constantly fighting left and right..

As long as your moving them by hand slowly there is no damage that can be done…just dont get a breaker bar and start prying on anything! Remove plugs so its easy to move crank, and you can see which piston(s) are coming to their tdc point. Move the crank slowly torward the correct timing mark, and if you hit a snag, look into the plug hole, and see which piston could be hitting a valve….and keep doing this untill all 3 are in correct place, and again if this seems to fail, just remove the cams put it all back in time, and replace the cams! You should not have to worry about the valvs needing to be adjusted, but it never hurts to check your work! If this is a customers car, im sure they want it back lol

Not 100% sure there, thats a question for one of the more advanced guys on here to answer! I Just try to go by the books as much as possable. Get a filler gauge And check the clearance before and after you do the job. And make sure everything you remove is all tightened to spec!

It shouldnt change much if any at all! You can check them when you replace the cams, and they are super super easy to adjust on most cars! ETCG has a video on this as well
