Timing Belt Continental 490H100
 
I noticed that RockAuto and now some Ebay sellers are listing the Continental 490H100 as a replacement timing belt for the OHC motors.

Specs seem to be basically the same as the old TB11.

One of the ebay sellers mentions the belt is a tiny bit narrower in width, but a little thicker than others.

Does anyone have any real world experience using one of these?

This is a link to the specs.

Can't speak on that belt, but the specs are good.

This belt I have and it is near perfect;

Actually that was the ebay seller that made the comments on size being slightly off.

I guess there are a few sources now. That one has the Screaming Chicken emblem, so it must be good!

Have one on the way.

Curious to see how it looks next to OEM.

That's the one I have on my engine and it works perfectly.

I received 2 and they look pretty much identical to the OEM belt.

If they're constructed anything like the OE Uniroyal belt it will outlast the engine.

Hi hope you don’t mind me asking but did you get the continental rockauto belt or the eBay belt ? Thanks

I bought 2 from RockAuto.

Just an FYI: I sell the Continental belt with 98 cogs (same as OEM) vs the others 100 cogs. Not sure if the extra length makes a difference or not.
