I'm liking the belt tensioner/idler pulley setup on the Kad.... Would anybody have a clue what car they would be off?

I've been searching the net.. Might look like a Cosworth YB tensioner.

I use the Ford Fiesta 1.25 zetec cam seals, 52mm OD 38mm ID and they fit nicely between the cam/ jackshaft triangular plate bolts ![]() Interesting information, ever since I got a set of honda cam pulleys, I've been thinking of doing my own scrap heap challenge style K-head conversion. I'll probably realise soon I don't have the skill or tools to do it though! On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:

The the DON have the idler pulley aswell? not an dler , but the one you show will work as a tensioner as it has an excentric mount, as is fitted to DON on an early head, completely different belt arrangment to the ones sprocket has posted. carl |

I think the tensioner might be of the YB Cossie and the Idler pulley is of the early c20xe.
