Ugo, I have never understood why this main drive belt is called a "Timing Belt". Its really a straight forward drive belt.

Hi Kevin,
mmmhhh...do you use this word for every main belt or for the GS only?
But your question is right: why "timing" belt? Probably because in the GS it's important for the sync too, so for the "time" of film...
(an italian would say: Ugo, you are doing scrambled up on the mirror... [Wink]

)
