Cloyes timing belt has no marks on it?

[jwestpnw]

I just got my new timing belt and it has no timing marks or any sort of directional arrow on it. It's a Cloyes brand which the salesman told me was the best quality you can get. Does it matter which way it goes on? How do I figure the positioning of the belt on the gears without the marks? I know one of you super smart mechanics knows some trick for this so if you could clue me in I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance-

There are several full write ups on changing the timing belt, some pinned in the garage section I believe, under "How To". Search or hunt directly and you shall find.

count the teeth but gates belts are best and personally, i'd take that one back and get one with the marks.
