I am in the process of gathering parts for a Eaton swap and i am wondering what Tensioner to buy and where is a good place to get it from?

Get the Cobra pulley tensioner either from Tousley Ford online, or SVTPerformance.com.

edit: Also, another alternative if you want it new, rockauto had them in stock, but I believe there was a part number and inventory discrepancy with them regarding the correct tensioner and pulley.

The correct tensioner with proper pulley installed is an 03-04 Cobra Accessory Drive Tensioner.

$33 for a belt tensioner? Haha that's a piece of crap dude.

You want a Ford unit, and they sell for $90

There is a thread with a parts list and part numbers.

Why don't you look at that

The Part number given is for the tenssioner off the the trilogy set. When i google it, it doesnt take me anywhere realy.

This cost a little more than stock Ford but is a strong piece, and yes for Eaton swap:
