That isn't a 2.2 tensioner that i've ever seen, should be smooth no ribs on it. I have a welded lsj alternator, 2.2l tensioner, 2.2 belt. Works fine.

see how the tensioner is smooth....idk if that's going to make a difference, although theoretically it will, because with a ribbed pulley, there is material removed. with the smoothed 2.2 pulley you gain a mm or two of surface that the belt will be sitting on therefore making it tighter..

That is the LSJ Idler Pulley above your crank. You can't use that. You need to get a 2.2/2.4/LNF Tensioner. Then the stock 2.2/2.4/LNF belt will work.

From the looks of it... he still has the LSJ Idler pulley on there.

In my defense I was on my phone. Also I asked about the tensioner. So I was mislead with the info he gave

Carlos all you need is a 2.4 tensioner. Thats how mine looks

And take out the lsj alt bracket, the alternator should be bolted directly to the block, you will need to get the correct bolts from GM.

I forgot that minor detail about the new alternator bolts being shorter so I went to ACE Hardware and got 1" spacers and put them between the bolt head and the alternator.

Yea that will work too. I ended up buying most of that together as a kit when I was buying my parts so I had the bolts from the 2.2.

On a side note, guess what arrived in the mail? No more delayed spool time very soon

Yea I hope so. I wanna do a 50mph roll in and smoke the tires on the freeway. def a good way to get ricers to leave me alone

Neither, you lose lol. Just playing, Im installing an SPR quick spool valve. Its gonna take some finesse and machining but should be complete by late this week.

great! let us know how it goes.

Guys samething happening again now that i got the right belt it must be alternator that is not working i bought the 2.2 alter but the electrical plug to the car is not the same what to dO now ?????????

slawson0042

buy the pigtail from GM. I can't remember the part #..

It's like $20 most likely they'll have to order it tho.

slawson0042

you need the male end of the 2.2 pigtail. then you can solder it into the existing alt. wiring.

jonnymerk

hey guys Im getting knock when WOT and full boost starts to hit. The car pulls timing and power starts to fall flat. I havent changed anything since last tune and I had no knock and this seems to have started recently. Any idea how I should trouble shoot or start with? Im tuned on meth maybe it isn't running at max potential i dunno... ideas?

BLAZIN07SS

iTrader: (7)

When's the last time you changed plugs? Sounds like spark knock.

slawson0042

James and I said the exact same thing when we were putting mine on.


we didnt know which wire went to which on the alternator.



so we guessed. lol

jonnymerk

before the tune. but I thought about that. I hate takin them out cus my #3 got a bit cross thread I think.
