The only way to be 100% sure there is nothing wrong is to pull the head off and inspect everything.
Would I be pulling the cams just to make sure that both the intake and exhaust are both closed during the compression test?Pull the cam's and plugs. do a compression test. Or if you have a cylinder leak tester.

Mine had 187,000. It usually is not the chain that fails it is the guides and the tensioner that wears out. I would also suggest put a water pump in while doing it. The pump is chain driven off the balance shaft chain.Now just a quick question how many miles does the engine have?
My engine has 110000 should I replace mine even if it is tight I haven't checked it yet
I was looking at this one...Is there a timing kit that guys are using I see there are a couple different ones on rock auto
How did the quality look where the I am sprockets better then the kits what was the reason you did not use sprocketsI used this one in mine 2009 LAP with VVT Just did not use the sprockets.

No instructions. I have VVT so my engine has cam phasers and the sprockets will not work on my application. Just reused my phasersHow did the quality look where the I am sprockets better then the kits what was the reason you did not use sprockets
Did it come with instructions first time doing this
