2 liter 16v rebuild questions

Hey everybody, thanks for the pointers earlier this week about 
cam alignment.  Got that sorted out, but now I've got some more 
interesting things popping up:

I'm ready to hook up a timing belt, but everything seems pretty 
tight.  Its hard to move any of the gears without using a 
wrench on the end.  Is that just because everything is brand 
new and hasn't been started yet?  I lost the bolt for my 
intermediate shaft gear too.  Anybody know what size that is?  
All the bolts I have here go in for a few turns and then no 
further.

thanks for everybody's help again
Dan
