Update.
I bumped the timing back to a more normal position and the car RIPS... it runs SOOOOO good I can't believe it. I thought it was a decently fast civic before... I've never lost a race to another civic... Or any other import for that matter... I didn't trail my buddy in his 70 impala TOO bad and his runs LOW 14's...
I can't wait to follow him home... He'll still beat me and all but it won't be as embarassing.
And as far as the T belt is concerned (as well as the tensioner and water pump)... They ALL looked fine and I went WAY WAY too long on them... the last time I had it done was the same time as my other belts and they were SHOT... but the T belt and other parts had NO wear indicators AT ALL...
I'm glad I got it done and all but I was expecting more wear on the belt at least.
Got just a few maintanance things left to take care of but over all it's coming together... I may actually buy fenders.
