Default Timing belt problem!

Hey guys this is my first post here!

I have one of the 10 valve canadian volvo 850s that have the 144 teeth timing belt. The problem is I can't find one anywhere. Every website I go to doesn't say how many teeth are on the belt and the one I did find is like almost 80 dollars.

Has anyone here had this problem before? Where did you find a belt?

Here's the parts page for a 1996 2.5 2 valve car, looks like the same choices for the previous page with a 1995 2.0 2 valve engine

I thought you were trying to find a timing belt for your car - and usually the best way is to start with a part number. (I've never counted teeth or heard of them sold that way)

Continental does list teeth in their catalog - you appear to need a CT855. And it looks like they are hard to find.
