    Default X16xe without tensioner

    Ok fitted the above but the tensioner is on the old cast alloy mount so that's not an option
    so what's the options fashion a standard type adjuster and run small belt or is there another option

    i never got round to it myself before i sold the engine, but knocking up an adjuster bar seemed like the best option to me.

    ive heard people say allsorts of belt lengths from 870 to 890 mm. if you do it that way, youll have to measure the pulleys with a piece of string and order a suitable belt, i think there PK6 on those

    I just used a Nova SRi bottom pulley and Nova alternator and used the Nova belt single V belt. But I don't have aircon, PAS etc. Just botttom pulley to alternator and adjust/tension it by the alternator.
