Default Timing belt

Do you guys recomend a Honda brand name belt or is one from any autoparts store OK? Is this a hard job to do yourself?

get the OEM one. a timing belt is not something you would want to skimp on.

Yea, don't scimp on the belt....my factory belt snapped

Of course I'm running Toda Spec C cams w/12:1 compression and rev to 9250rpms everyday.

I personally have the Power Enterprises Super Strong belt, but they are expensive.

Although I never seen one first hand, I have heard the Goodyear Gatorback timing belt seems to be of better quality than stock.

But if your remaining stock, then stock is fine.

Where did you get the Power Enterprises belt? If it's good I don't mind spending the money.
