You should be fine. But when you start it up, pull the relay for the fuel pump. This allows the tensioner to pressure up before it starts. Should stop the clatter you had on the left bank.. Should tighten it up a bit. On mine (been six years, so I am working from memory), the A bank seemed looser. Car ran like a top.
