Heads replacement
Hi everybody,
I have a 96 3.8 engine with 140,000 miles. I ran the car hot and had to repalce the heads. I bought some used heads that i put on already. I am almost fininsh with the engine assembly, but the tensioner pulley screw hole had got strip when i was trying to put the pulley on the belt tensioner. I dont want the buy another tensioner if this problem turns out negative because the are expensive. Is it possible I can run the car without the belt rolling after I change the oil? If my car runs good after that I wouldnt mind buying the tensioner.
Thank you

No i didnt get them resurfaced, but I had a machanic look at them and he said was good to put on. I did them down until the surface was smooth. Will the run like it suppose to or will there be some effect?
Thank you,
