Timing belt job: Car makes loud noise
After installing the timing kit. Everything looks good and it starts great. idles good and it even drives normal and good until she hits 4k rpm then it starts making a loud engine noise.
I did a search on here and found out that the timing belt was a bit too tight that's why it's making that noise.
Could it also be making that noise because the serpentine belt is too tight? Last night i checked the serpentine belt was really tight.
Any feedback would be great!!!
Thanks in advance.

Oil pump 180 out with rear balance shaft. Take timing belt back off, line up your timing marks and either
1. insert screwdriver into inspection hole on front of block. If it does not go in 2+ inches then rotate oil pump sprocket 360 and line mark back up. Screwdriver should go in quite a bit further now your good.
2. rotate the oil pump sprocket so the mark on it facing straight up at 12 o clock. Now let it go if it wants to turn clockwise your 180 out if it wants to fall CC toward the timing mark then your good.
