How is compression looking in each cylinder?
If it tests within spec, the next step will be to check the valve lash and torque of all the cam caps.
There are more things to test but I gotta run to work, good luck!

Now that its getting cooler out, checking compression and valve lash is something I can do.
One thing I was thinking is the engine leaks quite a bit of oil, I think it was leaking before the timing belt went, and it leaks a lot on startup, i'm guessing from the pan or maybe the oil cooler or filter. I replaced the front main and cam seals, and the valve covers look clean of oil as well. I guess why I mention this is I dont know if the buckets fill with oil or something like that. Im not familiar with the 5vz head so I dont know where oil is supposed to go or not go.
