Red timing belt?

Red timing belt?
I am in the process of putting my engine back together after a long down time. In the process I completed my own wire tuck which was a serious PITA, I defenetly wouldn't reccomend it for those who get fustrated easily. Anyways onto my question, my theme is black and red, more black then anything, I had the block sprayed flat black 2000 degree paint, Maperformance even jet coated my head black, intake manifold, exhaust manifold are black, ams fuel rail, anodized red, fuel lab FPR anodized in red, so you get the picture so far. To show off my attention to detail, I'm thinking of an AEM exhaust cam in red and showing it off with a clear cam cover. The power level I'm shooting for is the 700hp range so I'm almost positive the stock timing belt is a no go. I even called Gates company and talked to a representative for like 10 minutes, it wouldn't be cost efficient for them to make a red one, they would have to have an order of several hundred to even consider it, Googling red timing belts is a dead end, So i'm wondering if you guys have any suggestions???
I'd really like to pull of a red timing belt to use a clear cam cover, otherwise I'll have to more then likely just use the stock cover so no one sees the blue. I'll try to post a pic of where im at now but it is such a pain to make it a big pic, once again any suggestions would be great.

the balancer belt is the other one? I got rid of my ac compressor so i ordered a gates one for an RS but thanks for the offer, so the company is called Toda racing? are they as good as Gates? I'll look them up, thanks a bunch, another off the subject question, for the life of me I can't figure out how to attach a large picture, I tried resizing through photo bucket but you see how well that worked, any suggestions?

ok i understand, but i did a balance shaft delete aswell, trying to build this motor to be a as perfect as i can get it. I looked toda racing, looks like there 4g63 timing belt might be as strong or maybe stronger then a gates timing belt. thanks again for the tips
