Changed a broken timing chain and timed it with marks, but it wont start. Is it possible to be 180 out with marks right?

Hi,

This engine is said to be a non-interference engine. However, I have seen when the chain breaks when the engine is running, the valves get bent.

Do me a favor. Please record it cranking and upload it for me to hear. I may be able to recognize the problem.

If you look at the pics below, they include the directions and pics related to replacing the chain. Make sure this is what was done.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions. Again, check out the pics below.
