Default Heavy Duty Belt Tensioner
Hey guys I'm running a ZL1 1900 Blower on the truck which uses the factory drive system. For those guys that are running roots style blowers what belt tensioner are you guys running? I want to up the boost of the truck and get rid of some belt slip. Currently using the factory tensioner.

Not trying to steal thread but this is related. Does anyone know if there is a cheaper gates hd tensioner to use instead of the Magnuson one? I think i found one in the past (dont remember the part number) but it did not include the little adapter thing that comes with the Magnuson one.

A friend of mine bought the gates tensioner from rock auto for 80.00, made the plate and bought the bolt. He had 100.00 into it, I can see if he will make more if u want.
