D16z6 head question

Does anyone with a D16z6 head experience squealing noises right when you start up your car from your timing belt or cam gear or something? i just did a mini-me swap and when i started it up it was squealing till it got warmed up or something weird like that, well i was just wondering, thanks!

Yeah, check the tension and condition of your AC, PS, and alternator belts. Congrats on the mini-me.

should the timing belt be really tight? or a little bit loose?

check your timing belts or the belts in that area and also ensure all the bolts are on the alternator, that could cause the noise.due to a slack belt...
