The second video sounds smooth! It will be interesting to hear if there’s any driving difference now.
Yea, I think that clatter while turning over was much more pronounced on the video, I did not hear it in person otherwise I probably would have stopped before starting to figure out what was wrong.
It is very smooth, really just like before. It always ran good up until the belt break. Took it for a short drive and out to dinner and it drove just like before. Seems to have no ill effects from the collision of the valves and pistons. It’s back in service and is back to being driven daily.

I am just glad its back running, hoping there are no ill effects from the unfortunate collision of the valves and pistons.
