OK so i just did my BHG, but now i have no low end power, the engine seems boggy until i get it about half way to the floor, and tached at about 2.5-3.... be fore i could burn the tires right off now i cant even get a chirp... anyone know what could be causing this?

not sure, but could timing be off? I had my WP and TB replaced and they f'd up my timing and had to do a revision. haven't had to do a HG repair ... yet, so not sure if they would have to mess with the timing.

Your Timing belt is one notch off. This happened to me after my first BHG job. Tip: After setting the cams and crank like the book says, rotate the passenger side cam pulley toward the driver side about half a tooth from the top dead center position. Then install the belt. Works great!
