She was running great before i started the tear down. So as long as i didn't mess anything up building her up, she'll start right back up,

Though i do need new spark plug wires, and to put her back in timing, taking off the crank pulley, i took her out of time.

Removing the crank pulleys shouldn't change the timing as it is keyed and only goes one way I would think. Now if ya replaced the timing gear set than that's another story.

It happened when i was putting the bolt back in, I guess i torqued it to much, the book calls for 85 foot pounds, and i had my torque wrench on it, and before the wrench clicked the whole engine turned.
