A few questions regarding timing belt, cams etc

I have just put a new timing belt on and only had the car running about 15-20 minutes in the drive way. Now I think I might have scored some adjustable cam wheels and I'm wondering if I install them, is it ok to re-use my almost new timing belt? or is the slacking and re tensioning of it inducing a faliure? also if I adjust the intake cam from the stock position, I will need to re-set my CAS won't I?

A timing belt is cheap insurance. Could you get by with out it? Yes, but there's always that chance. If you want piece of mind get a new belt and cut the old one so you won't be tempted to use it later!
