Timing Belt with Stage 2 Skunk Cams?????
I plan on getting the stage 2 cams from skunk and was wondering if I would have a problem with the shortened life of the timing belt with these. I am replacing my timing belt since it broke and just want to know if my timing belt would be affected by the new cams?? any info would help. I know some of you say that with Toda spec B cams the timing belt only last about 40K miles.

Yeah that is true, but why are people having problems with the toda spec b cams. Why does it wear out the timing belt sooner??

Because when you compare the primary/secondary lobes of the toda spec B cam, they almost look identical to the VTEC lobe. So this is almost like having vtec on ALL the time. Just run a brand new stock belt and change it more often.

Geta power enterprise belt and be safe rather than sorry....Timing belts usually snap on B's due to improper installation and maintinence. Also running a valve cove w cam gear cut outs will cause deterioration. Get one for the dyno and keep them covered on the street.
