While I admire the engineering ingenuity that went on to convert to belts
from chains, I think for the majority of you it would be cheaper to buy all
the chains, gears and guides and far easier or convert to another engine.
I'm glad that ain't a problem for me. I can go to a forklift parts store and
buy anything I want. How about new waterpumps for 38?
