Default Belt and roller kit?? (Gates or Conti)

Hi. I want to get a belt and roller kit. I'd like to get Gates and/or Conti belts. Whats the best source? Most places don't tell you what kind of belt you're getting. I just got Flennor belts sent to me. Sending those back! Thanks!

Rennbay has a good selection of packages: http://www.rennbay.com/engine-timing-c-60_63.html

Plus they're fantastic to do business with.

We sell only gates, which are superior to the conti brand IMHO.

I got a timing belt from the dealership and it was Gates. I think they are the OE supplier now to Porsche.

My favourite places to go are Paragon (www.paragon-products.com), Pelican (www.pelican-parts.com)
and Zims (www.allzim.com). In my experience - great range, great prices, great advice, great people.
