Truck to car intake swap belt tensioner - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

badazmalibu · 04-02-2014, 08:51 AM

I have replaced the intake on my 5.3 with the Camaro intake. I installed a Camaro water pump with a DD spacer kit. What do I need to use for a belt tensioner...The Camaro tensioner is inset too far and the truck tensioner is too far out. Should I just fab some spacers for the Camaro tensioner or is there a tensioner that spaces the pulley correctly?

What is everyone doing to connect the PCV system on this swap?

Thanks in advance, Brett
