Question Look what came! and what is this?

After a little over a month of waiting IT finally arrived at my house. an 18 wheeler pulls down my street and im thinking to myself noo way. stops infront of my house and opens the back door. theres a dishwasher and all the way in the corner my engine


so im really determined to get the new block in but i need this thing.


long story short doing the cams a few months back i broke that tensioner pulley assembly(whats the real name and part number) i called mitsu and they want $150 for a new one. does anyone have any laying around or would anyone even have any laying around is there an upgrade to this part?

So, you spent all this money on a new motor and are now going to cheap out over a $150 part?

I mean it's not like it does anything important. It just keeps the motor from jumping time.

Buy the OEM part new and call it a day.

Hey thats just the accessory belt tensioner but I whole heartedly agree just to grab an OEM part from one of the online vendors and be done with it.

Oops. I just glanced through (at work in a rush) but, now I see that. My point is still the same though. Don't mess around putting used stuff on a brand new motor especially if it's reasonably priced to replace.
