When torquing down the cam covers I managed to sheer one of the cap head bolts, on closer inspection it seems that most of the bolts have stretched. Swapped them out for new after market items. A worthwhile upgrade for £15 per set.
Re checked the cam timing, the inlet was 104 and exhaust set to 106. The timing settings did not change when the chain snapped.
Dismantled the cam chain tensioner and checked that the rubber head was in place and that the pivot pin was in good working order.
While the engine was out I decided to fit the high output stator to give it a try before fitting it to the turbo engine later on in the year.
Fitted all casings and oil lines, the engine is ready to be refitted.
