I just thought that was a little weird, seing as it costs $130, how hard would it be to mark it? Come on, man!

You do not need the timing marks on the belt to set physical the cam timing. Just make sure your engine's components(ie crank and cam sprockets) are where they need to be and things should fall into place with no issues.

"are" not "is," the word "components" being plural requires a plural... you get the idea. Proper grammar rules.

On topic though, the belt does not need timing marks. I have never had a belt with them. Just line up the marks on the components.

I can't believe a stinkin' alcoholics anonymous 'failure' is trying to correct my grammar . Have a drink on my poor grammar and at the same time, I'll change "is" to "are" to save man kind from filthy drunks like you. This are done with love from "Dee" to you "Tim" ..........

That's bizzare, my greddy belt had yellow lines across the belt indicating timing marks..

But either way, as dee has mentioned, there not a show stopper..
