    Trying to order a replacement pulley for the belt tensioner (N/A) and I just want to make sure I don't order by mistake. Is the tensioner pulley the same as the supercharger pulley. It would appear from rockauto.com, but I want to be sure, are they the same pulley, dimensions, etc, thanks.

    some bonnies and park ave's are reverse threads on the sc tentioner. most gp and regals are normal threads.

    I found Mexpulley on eBay. They use NTN bearings and are metal not plastic. About $15 dollars for ribbed they should have smooth also.
