Thanks... I replaced the water pump with a new unit, converted the older hydraulic tensioner setup with a newer mechanical one, and of course a new belt. The water pump bearing froze so that tore up the belt - and led to the subsequent issue. After trying to start the car(it started but ran poorly) I did a compression test - no compression at all in Chamber #3. The other 3 are strong at 175psi on the fourth stroke. I'm going to pop the head off today and see how bad number 3 is... *sigh
