The K20 crank bolts are among the tightest I've ran into other than those god-forsaken 2.5L 5 cylinder engines honda put out.

As far as the timing goes, you must be VERY meticulous when doing the chain on a K20 because the cams don' naturally rest at TDC. Did you use the colored links on the chain to help you make sure it was timed along with all the other timing marks?
I had my neighbor who is a Nissan certified tech do the chain tensioner while I worked on swapping out the clutch and went to get the flywheel resurfaced. Either way, the damn thing has to come back apart while its in the car this time.


AHHHH
