Thanks for all the responses, guys. I really do appreciate your time, effort, and expertise.
I'm toast, I fear. I finally located the crank marks, approx 90 degrees ccw of where they SHOULD be (SO hard to see!!! I was afraid to turn the crank, so I had to get underneath with a mirror ... very difficult)
In summary, I attempted to use belt tension to react the crank pulley nut torque, and something snapped. But what I did next was the REALLY foolish part, and that was to cycle the engine a few times, before knowing if the crank position had changed. Even if the valve stars aligned and there was no damage in 90 degrees BEFORE I did the cycling, I made sure of it by turning the crank 720 degrees (Thinking I instantly qualify for one of those Darwin awards?) Interesting, I would have guessed there would be additional resistance when contacting more valves, but I did not "feel" anything unusual; the mass of the crank, rods, and pistons mask this, apparently. Any recommended video(s) for the valve and head work? I'll watch, then decide whether to fork over the $3,000. THANKS AGAIN.
