that is good that you didn'tuse the timming chain and tensioner out of the engnbldr kit. I have used it two times and it sounded like a diesle after finisthing the job. After the secound one sounded that way I took it all apart again to find out that the chain was too loose and actually was slapping against the timming chain guide bolts. I ended up replacing at that point. that chain only had 2000 miles on it. I put a different chain and tensioner in and it ran like a champ and sounded great after that. I'll never use that kit again
