bad screeching noise after newely installed head
 

well i got the head back on my gsr, got my new timing belt, timed it, and fired it up, i got a horrible screeching sound from the motor, i believe i have it timed right (hoping its not valves bending), anyone know what this sound could be????? and i know that its not a belt.

could it possibly be that i need to slide the distributor around for better timing?

Are you sure the belts are installed properly? Where is the noise coming from and can you describe the screech?

sounds like its coming from around the distrubutor/stater area. and sounds like a car that is screeching to a stop
