Also, what kind of tensioner is that for the supercharger?

I really like the throttle body attached directly to the transition assembly at the back of the blower.
And ditto on the tensioner. Looks pretty robust. That would be a nice winter project for me...building a new throttle body mounting piece.
I wonder if there would be any turbulence issues with it mounted that close at part throttle?

The tensioner looks like an OEM GM or Ford unit. Most seprentine engines have something like this. Since he's in Sweeden, I'm guessing it's probably a Saab (GM) tensioner.
Impressive work by the way.

I have two brand new, original Ford tensioners that I was planning on using for the supercharger install but the CS units require a belt tightness that far exceeds the limits of any serpentine system so the tensioners were never used. Looks like with a wide enough belt it just might work on a positive displacement unit.
