Default Timing belt guides??

Hi All,

quick question, is there really any difference between a CDF made guide and someone like Cosworth or RCM or is it just 'brand tax'

looking at them they all do look the same and i am pretty sure all the ones the are 40 quid are made by CDF and re-badged anyway

More than likely....

However I'd bet an rcm one actually fits. Anything cdf make is pot luck at best lol

You're not wrong there mate. I also think the RCM will take thicker belts unlike the Cosworth one!
