Cambelt tooth or 2 out?
I've seen one where the woodruff key in the bottom pulley had worn, causing the gear to slip round the crank ant higher rpm.

Is it an astra that has the same factory fitted engine as a nova sri, or is it an astra that has had a nova sri engine fitted into it?

ps what about the odd full stop in your sentence construction?

did you replace the cam when you rebuilt it? could be really worn.
