i wouldnt use any other belt than genuine honda because thats a high reving motor and its not a freewheeling engine if a cheap aftermarket belt breaks u r screwed and all your hard work on your swap down the drain. but if money is an issue go with carquest replace the water pump while you are at it and check to see if the crank seal isnt leaking.
