9K aero head gasket project - timing of engine

Hello fellow saab owners. So I am just about complete with my head gasket replacemnt project & I belive I have a timing issue. A couple of questions:
- Is it possible to be off so bad with timing that the valves can hit cylinder heads?
- The car sounded like a desiel when it started (and ran) I stopped it immediatly and am able to turn the engine over by hand, so I do not believe I have done any dammage.
-Is there a good online resource for timing the engine? I have the Haynes Manuel, but it not all that good...at least I am not that good.
Thx to any help all of you can provide!
-Jared
