Well one thing I do know Dom if you convert to dual spal fans you have a lot more room to get to the alternator and the tensioner and anything else on the front of the motor. PHil Jagdpanzer can confirm this. GC

This Belt Tensioner Pulley will fit the ZR-1 (LT5) as well as a standard C4 with L98 engine.

Ebay Billet Aluminum Belt Tensioner Pulley

Rather than a pipe on combination open end......just use another Combination wrench box end on the Open End.........

To get the 1/2 inch socket into the 1/2 inch square receiver of the Tensioner (for release of the serpentine belt), just lift the Tensioner a bit with broom handle and insert socket.....then compress Tensioner. Like Paul suggests....no need to remove ANYTHING to remove the Tensioner. Use a bit of Blue Loctite on Tensioner Bolt when installing and tighten just enough.....

I actually remove the Alternator Pulley when installing new belt as I have a "special Tool" to remove that alternator nut in a few seconds. Then I place the alternator pulley in the tensioner belt and install the pulley on the alternator.....DONE DEAL.

Oh.....by the way.....I invented a New Way to install the Serpentine Belt......Remove the Alternator Pulley (takes 1 minute) and position NEW Alternator Pulley inside Serpentine Belt and lift up the Alternator Pulley and Serpentine Belt with Belt Tensioner compressed (Keep Serpentine Belt aligned with Belt Tensioner Pulley). Now just slip the Alternator Pulley onto the shaft (very easy to do and plenty of play) and tighten up the 15/16 inch Alternator Pulley Nut.

All Aluminum Alternator Pulley

Dynamite... Clean that engine compartment. But great information.
