Thanks for the write-up!

You really should have replaced the chains while you had it apart though. They stretch over time.

I've got 135K on mine and it's only making a very slight tick noise. Guess I'm lucky! I'm planning to replace the gears, chains, guides and tensioners (and pump I guess) all at the same time.

Do you really need to pull the intake manifold??? Dang.
