I would prefer if I can get it 100% right before I take it for such a long trip.
yeah its not bad timing the car, you just gotta make sure your timing tool sits perfectly flat at TDC, just follow TIS basically.. but, i've seen some bad timing tools that were off a bit.

But if you're just doing the vanos covers, you just need the tool to lock down the timing.
