Need lots more info from you, for instance, what sort of engine is it?
Cam timing could well be an issue (assuming it's an OHC of some sort) as well as the ignition timing

I can't imagine you are going to get much help with this unless you give us a LOT more information.

Suspect the first thing to check would be the cam timing.

when you did the timing, did you lock the crankshaft with the renault tool or not? If you didn't, you might got the wrong timing, causing the
valves to bend!!
