Can anyone recommend somewhere to get a cambelt (not main dealer) and how much, roughly, it should cost?

Try Andrew Page, TownEnd Garage, ScoobySport, ScoobyMania, TSL

Are you fitting yourself?

Would pay no more than £60 for a belt personally..

Thanks.
I was thinking of having a go, if it ever stops raining.

Five O i bought my cam belt from Graham Goode i paid £44.49 + P&P . I also fitted it myself, never again i will be getting someone else to do it next time. If you do it yourself be careful the cams spring round off there marks.

There was a thread about this recently, I wish I had saved it, it gave some ideas about DIY cambelt changes, like using little wooden wedges to hold the cam sprockets whilst changing the belt.

I assume the cams in each head are geared together so you only have to 'fix' one sprocket on each head?
