"clockwise from underneath" is righty-tighty...so there goes that bit

Thanks everyone for all the help. I didn't bring the car here, but it is a ROW car. Nice to have the extra bit of hp before I start to do anything. The car was traded in to the PO's dealership. It has not been driven much in the last decade or so. A nice surprise when I brought it home (from Van) this November was that it already had the tensioners upgraded to hydraulic ones

I figured I saved an extra 6-700 bucks on the car in that alone. He obviously had no idea that they were there, or what they are I'm sure. He did seem to take nice care of it though. It's no show car, but a real nice original, unmolested daily driver.
I do have a good shop near Winnipeg that I know of where I can get a lot of this stuff checked out. I'm a hands-on owner, but I don't have the equipment to check everything afterward unfortunately. Oh well, can't have everything all the time.
I have "cranked it down" to 25", but I can't drive it at all as it is winter and the car is not road insured (fire and theft only). I have bounced it all I can, and hopefully that has settled it as much as need be...but I guess I will find out in the spring.
