yes I suppose...I have a timing lift, and I'm sure it hasn't jumped teeth, but hey who knows at this point. Most likely I will need timing done again.

I dunno what to do, the bolt itself is fine, the bolt hole is FUBAR...I pulled what looked like an aluminum metal slinky off the bolt that came out of that hole...

so honestly, Im stumped as to how to fix this...

I have no car, that is my only one. How can I tap and die the bolt hole, if I cant get to the hole? Were talking less than 3" of room between the tensioner bolt hole and the frame rail...the motor is still in the car...
