So little update 2 months later. I went to store the car and the timing belt noise was horrendous. Quickly put it back in the garage. I just got around to doing it now.

So far it has gone well. Cursing at the amount of room they gave us to work, but overall, not bad. Broke the timing belt cover 1G single cover in a 2G) but it will repair easily.

Looks like the tensioner was failing. Belt had a lot of slack and it was rubbing right below the oil sprocket. I have a full replacement kit going in.

I did buy Fidenza adjustable cam gears and I was hoping the cam gear lock (plastic wedge you stick in between would be enough to hold while I crack 1 nut loose and replace, but no such luck. I don't want to push it. I didn't want to remove the valve cover till I did lifters and cams. If anyone has a tip on how to remove Cam Gears without removing cover, let me know! Photos to come.
