Ouch. Sorry to hear that, but hopefully the valves are ok. If I may ask, what (de)tensioner are you using?

But it couldn't be a simple matter of the crank pulley having slipped, wherein I could just lock down the cams and put enough force on it to skip the other direction. The right cam was retarded one tooth, but the left cam is retarded at least two, so I guess I'm going to have to totally re-fit the timing belt before I can determine whether or not there's been internal engine damage. Which means driving the Porsche 928 to work tomorrow with a couple inches more snow predicted; that should be interesting.
