Signed up and commenting here just to download this. Recently tried to use one of the nice aftermarket tensioning tools but it is no good because they did not include the calibration data...

Which one did you try? I did an article for Panorama a few years ago, testing all the tension tools I could find -- and the bottom line is that none of the generic tools worked. That was one of my main motivations for this tool.

Can you post a link to the 3-D print file, so we can also use it. I have access to a 3-D printer at my son's high school.
Thank you in advance,

My friend told me about this forum and I'm excited to print this tool when I replace the timing belt in the '86 Turbo I just bought.

Please start a new thread in this 3D Printing STL section and post the STL! It's a perfect example of the kind of thing Carpokes is all about -- a grassroots solution to a problem the diehards know all too well. Nice job!
