Oil pressure

well your engine needs the timing belt to be setup correctly so that the valves open and close at the right time. if your timing belt is off, and your exhaust valves are open during the compression stroke, your not gonna build any compression. You would have had to take the timing belt off to remove the head to do the headgasket. If you have a manual it will show you wheer the marks on your cam gears should be sitting for proper timing belt installation, and your crank should be at 0 degress top dead center(someone can correct me if i am wrong on that one). Does the engine sound like its cranking real fast, or does it sound like its cranking improperly at all, or does it sound normal?
