Engnbldr - Is this timing kit good?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOT...21447907QQrdZ1

Does this kit include EVERYTHING I need to do my timing chain/cover?

Does anyone know which guides this comes with (plastic or steel?) *nevermind, they're steel! *

Let me know your experiences with Engnbldr and his timing kits. Thanks

he is a good guy, he took the time to explain to me the differences between the different 22re and 20r engine heads, his kits are very good quality too, highly recommended!

You don't have 7400+ transactions and 100% positive feedback without doing something very right.

EB is the best out there IMHO.

By far one of the friendliest and most helpful people out there. Quality parts, my engine hasn't ever run better.

I installed one about 2 years ago and haven't had a single complaint. Good price, good product, good service.

the driver's side one is the critical guide, if it breaks, the chain eats through the cover into the water jacket by the water pump impeller. i don't see the passenger side one break very often though, so plastic is probably fine there.

i'd just shoot engnbldr a paypal, i think his prices are the same off his site as they are on ebay.
