2014 roadster parting out

[TURBO200R4]

Having a Carpenter motor myself I can only be curious as to how the loss of the timing chain come about?

it was not carpenters fault my friend had ask me about the manual timing adjuster and before i could get back to him he said that he was hearing a noise and had set it one and one half turns in. i have not pulled the front so i assume that it broke one or both of the guides. so all i know is all of the exhaust valves hit the pistons and are bent and stuck down about 1/4 inch

One and a half turns in.. from where?

from where carpenter had it set and it was running before. didn't last very many miles after he adjusted it.

while we are on the subject is there like an adjustment (like on transmssions where you torque to 20 inch pounds then back it off a few turns like 1 to 4 turns) or like snug it with two fingers with open end wrench then back it off
