Hi, I'm going to buy a timing belt for my car. Where is the cheapest or best quality one that I can get??

So far I'm looking at the one at http://www.gm-car-parts.com/gmautoparts.htm for $59.95 is it the best deal?

Are you looking for the timing belt only, or for a timing belt set? (roller, tensioner, belt) I can actually get you any combination LOL. When do you need it by?

Isnt it a good idea to replace the tensioner every time you replace the belt? or is that something else

Its actually recommended. Failure of the tensioner or the roller will have the same effect as broken timing belt.

Well, what would be the price difference between getting a timing belt and a timing belt set? So far I have 53k miles on the car... should replace it soon.

I can't tell about the GM's North America, but in europe Gates is the preferred OEM belt replacement.

Do you need a price for the belt only, or also for rollers and the tensioner?
