Power enterprise kevlar belts used to be on ebay maybe ebay au though can't remember exactly

[lee0100]

yeah seem to only be from Australia, just wondered if anyone stocked them in the uk

[T-dog]

I'm after one to lol , looked ever were , I'v seen them for sale in America , but non in the uk , let me know if you find one

[shorty]

I've had a few power enterprises ones. Around 120ish iirc and i bought mine from japan as shippings not too bad because they weigh naff all.

Why do you want one? OEM one is just as good unless your going to rev the tits off the engine.

I know TMD used to sell them, maybe TD can get hold of them?

[TurboTobz]

Oem is fine as in theory if it goes your not going to get valve interference with pistons. Some used to get them for bling factor with a clear cam cover it looks pretty

That's why I want one lol , just so it look a bit different behind the clear cam cover , blings the way forward

Cheaper to run the oem black belt and spray the pulleys blue and polish up tensioner's that's what i will be doing when rain stops if it ever does.

If not i seen blue belts on nengun the other day

I only ran them because my old forged engine was built to rev silly high

[T-dog]

Yeah mate that's a idea , or get a adjustable cam pulley

Is the 4efte engine different to the 4efe for Valve/piston clearance?

As i keep hearing everywhere people stating they're "non interference" but in Autodata books and Carweb (what we use down work) they both state the 4EFTE AND 4EFE as being interference engines

[TurboTobz]

4efes are the same aswell as far as im aware

[AdamB]

The cambelt has nothing to do with if the engines interference or not.

They are non-interference engines but it depends if the head has been skimmed before.

who said it did?

Would have to be around 2mm skim iirc to contact

[turbo Grant]

All gates belts are rated to 22,000 rpm

[Scott-EP]

I know the cambelt has nothing to do with the interference... But everyone keeps saying they are non interference and i don't know whether to believe it or not specially as Autodata have it down as an interferance engine

[turbo Grant]

Mines an interference engine

[shorty]

Yours is running mad cams though g-dog haha. No they are not interference engines 100% mate.

[TurboTobz]

I have living proof in my garage scott

[TrisK]
