        Yeah, see i'm at 16x9 and after spacers it's et10. It already rubs in the back a little bit on one side. And I need spacers in the front to clear the calipers.

              you should be able to twist the belt about 90 degrees when it's "tight"

                I was hoping for a number value to go for on a belt tension gauge, but I'll give this a shot.

                  Alright guys. I got my es put back together ;)

                  It starts it runs, it drives, but there is one thing.

                  The car runs a little bit rough/loud. While at idle it shakes a bit more than before, and is loud. I think it might be the valves. We put them at .010".

                  What do you guys think?

                    Valves wouldn't cause shaking. Verify that all your cylinders are firing.

                      That is what my dad suggested. I am going to go start it after I finish some homework.

                      The thing is that once the rpms get up the car is completely smooth, is this normal with a misfire?
