Does anyone besides Jesel sell the timing belt drives? I know Jesel is the best but at this time I can not afford a Jesel. I was thinking someone a while back was talking about someone who had them a lot cheaper. I need it for a race engine.Thanks

Australian Muscle Parts. They don't have any replacment parts, though, So, when you need seals, bits and pieces etc, you have to find them at a bearing house, or you're screwed. I have one I would sell for $400, but it needs the cam drive fixed. They do work well, but it takes an act of God to get any replacment parts. Buy a Jessel, they have great stuff.

CHEAPER and a belt-drive can not be used in the same sentence !

IF .. you do not need between-round cam-timing changes ...I would just stick with a good STANDARD timing chain and gears.

I would be looking at a Milodon Gear drive if I wanted rock steady timing, and bullet proof engineering.

I also agree if you cant afford a new belt drive, then buying a used one, and ordering up $100+ replacement belts will get old fast
I Milodon gear drive will last as long or longer than anything in the engine.

probably the reason for lack of parts might be due to the factory in aussie was in those big fires they had over there just over a year ago? don't know if it was on your tv but we got to see some huge fires towns destroyed. Bendigo i think the place was. i have one of their units and I have a couple of spare parts so i guess i'm lucky. the belt on the Aussie unit is a MITSUBOSHI 640H8M. So i'm guessing thats 640mm so i guess thats around almost 26 inches. how long is the Jesel belt? what exactly is broken on your one comatomcat?
