I was reading another post about bad idle and just wanted to make sure my timing marks are lined up proper..I feel my marks are lined up, but both gears are one tooth high if that makes sence. check out the pics..

It also looks like you have the wrong pan bolts in the front by the oil pump. Could be an illusion but it looks like a groove is starting in the middle of the belt.

You should be ok. But the only way to tell will be after its set properly.

Timing is for sure off and they for sure put the wrong bolt in the oil pan. Make the shop fix all of that. Unacceptable work for any shop to do.

Shops generally lose in court if you have all the right proof.
