Ok here is the 411.
Driving, 35mph. went over some train tracks. Hand hits the shifter knocks it into N. Over revs, popped it back into D. Immediatly after car starts to knock. give it to much gas and it drones. I am thinking Timing belt slipped? any thoughts. Already checked Fluids. Oil pressure is normal. Idle a bit higher than usual.

It's sad that you had to take it to that level to get things done. Baby that new engine for 1,500 miles before you get on it. Yes he is still making CAI's. I got one myself this summer. Thanks for the update.
