Write this down.   It's been on the list before.  Tim LeClair at 810 
742 1600 or 800 728 1601 had some rock bottom prices on several parts.  
He has a storefront in Flint, MI and does business on ebay as FAP99 or 
foreignauto99.  He sells the $99 timing belt kits someone is always 
asking about.   IIRC, Bruce Mendel recommended him to me.  I was 
pleased with his service, no other connection.
