?? Thought that the roots type blowers mounted the tensioner pulley to the SC body itself. If you run a centrifugal like mine the tensioner is built into the mounting bracket.

Edit: Found this with a brief search. 401 with a 671.

Mine has that same tensioner-I will need to figure out a way to support it better-the snout on my blower cracked so we are replacing it.

I would bet it cracked because the belt tension was set to tight when cold. There is a certain way it needs to be adjusted. It will tighten up when hot.......Jim
