Broken Timing Chain, what else should I look for?
The timing chain broke on a 2.4 CIS on a 1973 911T. What else should I look for?
Do the valves have negative clearance with the pistons? Wondering if I have a row of bent valves.

They should clear as long as you didn't over rev it. Chain ramps, chain sprockets, check for wear, make sure all the chain pieces are accounted for. Hope for the best!!

in this case, a compression test is your friend.
