Appreciate the info

Removing the sparkplugs today and having a look at the pistons with a boreoscope. Should be som traces if the valves hit the pistons i would assume..

I can still manually turn it without feeling any interference between pistons and valves.

As for the timing i did set the crank to the position and the cams look pretty much in level(facing ditectly towards each other)

The car is jacked up pretty high on jackstands,(car sits in a steep angle) wondering if that may have caused the oil usually left in the heads to return to then pan and this causing more chain rattle at startup then normal(when cold)

All this might give me a reason to buy a D3
