What about using a stock LSA/ZL1 blower tensioner setup? I priced out the bracket, tensioner, and bolts for less than $140. Any reason it wouldn't work? Belt alignment spacing would be the same.

Kinda. I bought a LSA tensioner from Summit and a bracket from PCM of NC.

I had to trim the lower radiator hose and also had to take a flap disc to the water neck to get extra clearance.

Why? 6 rib with the LSA tensioner works just fine.
