Fbody/GTO Offset Tensioner Bracket Kit
This tensioner bracket bolts onto any Fbody/GTO OEM or aftermarket water pump, and allows the use of the popular Cummins 6BT style belt tensioner, commonly sold under the Gates 38518 part number (sold separately). There are 5 clock-able indexing holes for tensioner body clocking to get the ideal geometry and tension on the belt. Kit comes with bracket, 3 billet spacers, and hardware to bolt the tensioner to the bracket. The stock tensioner hardware holds the bracket to the water pump, and there is a third bolt that goes back to the head for the most rigid setup on the market. We do also offer a tensioner idler pulley "body" with shoulders on the sides that can replace the stock steel non-shouldered pulley as an upgrade if needed. You must press out the existing bearing and press it into the new billet idler pulley body, or purchase a NEW bearing at the link below. The offset of this tensioner will work with both OEM 6 rib and all 8 rib setups that add 2 ribs forward. If you are running
