I think My Wifes Outback lost a timing belt on the way to Grandma's house last night.
Prolly be looking for a head, maybe 2.
Any online vendors?

Vendors? do you want to buy new ones? I bet the heads are fine, you just might need some new valves. I would just take them off and take them down to Midwest engine rebuilders (732 E 4th St # B Duluth, MN 55805-2198 (218) 723-1651) They can go through them and tell you wants wrong and rebuild them accordingly. They have gone through about 3 sets of DOHC heads for Grayguy.

Yeah, I might just do that. I got it home. It looks like the upper right cam gear came thru the rear timing cover. I'll be opening her up this afternoon.

^ you are most likely going to have several bent valves. Midwest is the best place to take stuff, but if you look on NASIOC and around other subie sites, you might be able to find a set of good ones. These DOHCs are not cheap to rebuild, mine had 2 bent valves, and but the time I had everything fixed/milled I have about $600 into mine.
