timing belt "kit" or OEM?
I see a lot of parts stores selling timing belt "kits" for a good price....timing belt, tensioner, tensioner spring, water pump, water pump gasket, timing cover gasket, crank seal,
Do you guys go oem with this stuff? Or is an aftermarket kit like this okay to go with? The kits I am refering to are very well known brand names,

I'm quite partial to OEM, as well, especially with sites like www.hondaautomotiveparts.com at our disposal.
