just ensure that the new timing belt is place EXACTLY the same as what is being removed. In other words the "mechanical" alignment (mechanical timing) MUST be spot on between the 2 cams and the crank gears. they cannot become out of alignment.

This should not be an issue if the car was running fine and this is just a simple belt replacement.

The concern is if the belt broke or jumped teeth. Then that is a huge issue and the valves are bent.
