I know the head is 1.8/2.0 but since this is the block I'm just curious if its a different part all together, or if they share the water pump?

Also, I've heard hyundai techs talk about tilting the engine to access the stupid bolts on the pulleys to make it easy to swap out the water pump. How do YOU guys do the swap? Put it this way, last time I swapped the water pump, I friggin drilled a hole through the fender wall of my old green tibby so that I could access the pully bolts, lol. Worked great, but not doing that again!

i wouldnt trust either of those kits

whos to say the timing belt doesnt snap within 100 miles of use

get a gates belt man or at least something brand name

its been a LONG time since i did just a timing belt (usually have the motor out for some reason lol) so sorry cant help you there

how bout this belt? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OEM-HYUNDAI...=item5ad91e01db

and this pump smile.gif http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-08-Hyund...=item1c0a96640c

A 1.8L belt will NOT fit a 2.0L. Trust me, I've tried it. My parts car had a new pump and belt, replaced by the previous owners that the broken belt was the only problem. Go figure it didn't run, but that meant I got a bran-new pump for my DD. The belt was too short by (IIRC) an inch or so.

A parts-store Gates belt and store-brand water pump are on my ride right now and I have full confidence in them. Gates makes the OEM belt, and the pump would be pretty hard to get wrong and have it work at all.
