Hi Shimon,

I had a quick search for that video - is it this one?

I think I can see the tensioner you mean:

Austen, brilliant looking project, watching with fascination.

Cheers, Pete

Looks superb Austen i hope it works well for you

Is there a manual timing belt tensioner available for the T5 engine?

I dont want to use the OEM auto tensioner system at high revs

Not that I'm aware of.

Might have to make something up

Sure you could take the tensioner wheel and make something out of t, after all the tensioner only presses against it.

I've got my head back from getting ceramic coating

I've had the ports done as well as the combustion chambers

Will post up pictures soon

What's the benefit of ceramic coating?

It acts as an insulator?
