Got my car back today.

The mechanic retorqued the heads and adjusted the valves and replaced
the crank pulley.
He said they were super tight and that God must've been with me
because after test driving the car it ran strong.
He said that with all the belt dust on the generator and case it had
to of been turning most of the way. Because an engine will fry within
a 1/2 of mile.

Set some money aside for a rainy day, just in case you're gonna need a
new engine or a rebuild. Good to have money set aside, no matter what.
Keep you're eye on it, and good luck!
