This car ran and drove before the installation of the timing belt, the timing belt had not been done for well over an estimated 100,000 miles.

Hello all! A friend asked me to help with his ALH not starting. Long story short, a lifter went, damaged the head and piston. The block and head have all been replaced. It cranked over, no smoke, no start. Pulled the valve cover and found the cam 180 degrees out and the IP timing off. Removed...
