Now waiting for a new steel dampner.

    tensioner

    Beautiful setup but the tensioners on the bulltear setup do not appear to be spring loaded. How do u maintain or even tighten belt?

    Alternator bracket allows you to tension. Gates belts have very very little stretch and a spring loaded idler will give up load with the kind of tension you see in a supercharger setup unless the spring rate is very high.
