well the helicoil saved me. I barely even had to drill the hole in the head, it was already stripped so bad, LOL to a 25/64th sized hole..

I'm putting everything back together, tensioner is holding tension fine..

Had to battle a 12 foot gusher of power steering fluid. That stuff SUCKS in your hair.. OMG.
Pretty funny though, I have a huge 'splash' on my ceiling in the garage and it gave me an excuse to throughly clean the engine bay. Everythings shiny now, ...including my hair. LOL

them PS pumps are stong sh!t..

Yay! We all have to learn somewhere... I have fond "memories" of doing aweful things to my first cars.. like forgetting to tighten a sparkplug down and having it get ejected from the head..
