I'm glad it went well, but please heed this warning. Next time you are in the area of the timing belt (or make the time), replace the tensioner. I had my belt replaced at 100,000, but the tensioner broke at 160K and it popped 10 valves - cost me about $2500. I've seen similar instances since I started reading these sites.
