Hey Supaman
Sorry to go a bit off topic.. but I have had a problem with my timing belt having lost a few teeth... smashed all the rockers like yours.. what did the top of the pistons look like? did you have to replace them too?... Mines in the shop right now and they have just given me the bad news.... they can replace all the rockers, belt etc..but they cant guarantee the pistons and bottom end is going to be ok..
