Gates 90-91 Prelude 2.1L / 88-91 Prelude 2.0L DOHC Racing Performance Timing Belt

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1988-1991 Honda Prelude, especially if it's a 2.1L or a 2.0L DOHC model, a strong timing belt is crucial. This Gates Racing Performance Timing Belt is built to handle more stress than a standard belt, making it a solid choice for engines that see harder use or have been modified.

Gates uses advanced rubber compounds and stronger tensile cords in this belt. This construction helps it resist stretching and wear, even under higher RPMs or increased load. It's designed to maintain precise timing for your engine's valves, which is essential for performance and preventing catastrophic engine damage if the belt were to fail. The reinforced construction means it's less likely to skip teeth or break compared to a stock belt.

When installing, always follow the manufacturer's recommended procedure to ensure proper tension and alignment. A well-tensioned and correctly installed timing belt is key to getting the most out of your engine's performance and longevity.
