belt tensioner

[erick garcia]

does the belt tensioner off a b16 fit a ls

[lucarelliracing]

yeah all b series tensioners are the same.

all the same i had a B16 tensione on my LS at one time! but waterpump is a big NO NO!

[erick garcia]

why?? i have ran a b16 water and oil pump on my ls vtec and it worked witout a problem

[Civic-8442-]

have you tried it on a FULL LS Longblock? with NO vtec head., timing belt just didnt seem too match up on my LS with the B16 waterpump.

[erick garcia]

obvioulsy i think the vtec head stands up a lil bit taller than the ls at least thats wat i think

[daBoosted93]

i think it does also. I havent looked at the ls and b16 water pumps side by side but i think that gsr and b16 water pumps are the same arent they?

[erick garcia]

i havent really noticed that but there shouldnt be a big difference

The water pumps have different sized pulleys. You can put an ls water pump on a b16, you just have to have the right sized timing belt.
