Replacing belt for cam gears... #805581 11/25/03 09:02 PM

OP IonNinja Hard-core CEG'er I Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 8,143 AZ	Im missing some "teeth" (guess thats what you'd call them) on my belt for my cam gears. I was wondering how hard it would be to install myself and what I would need to do. I have stock cam gears so I would just need to remove the belt and put the other one on right? And how bout the bottom cover for the cam gears, can I just pull that off so I can get to the bottom part of the cam gears? Looks like it would be a pretty simple install but I'm known to f*ck simple things up so I was wondering...and IF I were to take it somewhere to have put on how much should I expect to pay?
