Update: Cylinder Head in Machine Shop for repairs, a very recommended machinist.

>1st What does a couple of days waiting for parts to arrive do to my head? Not the cylider head, the head on my shoulders?

parts and fastener's idle, waiting to go back to their intended design & use.

1st> Where do I begin? Has anyone reading this ever actually had a timing chain fail and DIY fixed it? Its a mess and a half because there are no manuals.

> Align the block now, there is no pulley. So which pistons are supposed to be up at TDC? #1 Up & so forth. So going to temperarily reinsert 27mm hex bolt and turn it over until reaching a TDC

2nd> outside the block find TDC on cylinder head by manually turning the camshaft sprocket until it looks like tdc with arrow at 9:00, which Valves should be opened at TDC for intake & exhaust? then install Cylinder head

3rd> check its timed> how process?

4th> Attach chain

5th> reinstall lower chain cover

6th> Seal it up & torq things down

7th> Pulleys & Belt

8th> Clutch/Fan/Distributor

9th> Radiator(install) then add fluids & oil
