TIMING BELT 200

I want to thank everyone that gave me all the advice on timing the B230 engine. I had timed it properly but was not sure of myself since I could not obtain what I wanted from replacing the belt after the thing broke at 80 mph. Now I know most of you are going to say, the pistons rarely if ever hit the valves so 99% of the time you can just retime the thing and put on a new belt. NOT THIS TIME. I have a Phase IV cam from Ememe and it has quite a bit more lift than a factory cam including IPD's turbo cam so the results were a disaster. I guess I better go as it will take me forever to take the head off and cry for a week or two.. Thanks all.....<><<><><> :<) Max
