    When was the last time the timing chain tensioner was replaced? Or any timing chain stuff? From the video the motor is very loud, it shouldn't make noise like that.

        I don't have that information, unfortunately. That video was taken with the exhaust already removed, so it wasn't that loud before.

          I'm very flexible on price, I need this shit out of my garage and money to finish my car.
