This is a GM tensioner.

Now that the billet ones will be coming on line soon people will be willing to spend a 100 bucks more for a new unit versus a 27 year old original regardless of mileage.

I love the aftermarket as they keep prices down on the old parts that aren't being made anymore as the supplies dwindle.

Even you are dumping this one for a new billet one, look how many people are lining up for one of them in that thread.

Don't worry though someone will buy it that wants an original looking one after they strip the hammered paint of it versus the aftermarket one that will soon be available.

Rob,
I get your drift but you are a little off base as I don't know how a $450 tensioner will keep the price down on a nos one ( and I sold my last two new ones for $250 each. Used ones $100 to $175.
I think we'll have to cough up a little more than $100 for a billet one.

I'm sorry Mike I wasn't trying to get you in a bunch, I thought those billet ones were going for less than 350.00 due to the amount of people in on the group buy.

450 is a lot for a billet one and an old stock one for that price isn't out of the question I guess.

If you'll take $150 shipped Pm me. Thanks.

$233.50 is only half of what the cost is for the billet one. The group buy required 50% down to start the project.
