Belt kit - contitech or gates
W/pump - QH, pug
HG - Corteco make the original pug ones and they are about £15 from gsf. Pug want £45.50 for a HG.
Head bolts - FAI are alright or they are 7.50 each from pug and you need 10.

Bit unrelated but has anyone noticed how much ECP's oil prices have gone up? Bought 5L of tripleqx from them just before FCS and it was £22 now it's 35!

As for someone who works at the uk's largest aftermarket partssupplier I'll Stick My 2penith worth in...
Head gasket...Payen (No we dont stock them so not supporting my work )
Cambelt kit..Skf ... Skf bearings are the best you can get, the belts are important as well,the best have a red or yellow stripe on the edge which contain kelver,this gives the belt its strength
Water Pump..Qh. NO... Firstline everytime
Bolts ... again payen

agreed with the head gasket, belt as well (although continental also use skf bearings so ive always used them). waterpump however whats wrong with QH considering the original part is made by QH?
