Already dismantle the intake manifold and the camshafts, but the front exhaust manifold looks tricky??? , will it came off together with the head if the 3 bolts at the downpipe connector are removed??? space between the firewall looks quite narrow... Anyway now that all the valves are closed it will be posible to perform a leakdown test to isolate which cylinder bank has bent valves,, if any , Iam really not sure as the rear exhaust camshaft got out of sync by about 45 degrees, but tappet adjustments were all out, was a stupid mistake did not tighten the tensioner after taking up the slack.
