        what cars have the appropriate covers?(when I first joined the site I remember reading an involved discussion about all the various motors and their vehicles based upon the B3, B6, B8, etc. design; so perhaps a sticky or two, one about which covers will fit the B3 & from which vehicles, and also a link to that discussion...probably from FMS. com?)

        BTW, the timing belt covers on my '91 Festiva 5-speed are heat-distorted; which I've never seen on any other cars I've looked at.(a half dozen or so in the wrecking yard in Eureka, CA)

        p. s. The discussion if I remember correctly was fairly detailed, going into problems swapping into a Festiva with each type motor and maybe even transmissions?

        p. p. s. Anyone an expert on longevity of timing belts?(at 100,000 miles when changed the factory one[we'd assume since I'm 2nd owner] was visibly/tactile more flexible and worn seeming by a considerable amount than the Asian GATES replacement...)
