Cambelt kit's
« on: 28 October 2010, 20:05:58 »

I didn't know the were so many makes of kit manufacturers, I've ordered the Gates kit but the guy ran off about another 2 or 3 makes.
So what makes do you use?

Is it true that Gates are the original equipment suppliers to Vauxhall? 

The only on or one of several?

Gates are OEM, which I prefer and always use. ContiTech are also good from reports I've seen.

I've tried an online search for 'Gate's' cambelt kits, but can't find any motorfactors that does them for Omegas. Anyone got any suggestions?

SKF kits are also good. Generally Gates belts and SKF bearings.
