Not lucky, i just knew the basics.. e.g. when people told me the valves where bent i knew they werent, i have a good understanding of how engines work, just never worked on a floating crank weird french setup but hey... learn something new everyday. Nah havent road tested yet, but it will run fine.
No...you were lucky. You timed an engine up around 45 degrees out on the inlet cam by the sounds of it, there is no possible way you knew you hadnt bent anything until you had gone right back through it all again. Just a bit of advice pal, drive it. Because many people have done it, or had theirs back from a garage where it starts and drives fine, but is way down on power when you get up the revs, all due to being a tooth out. God knows how but it seems to happen a lot.
