I would remove the belt and check the new tensioner to see if it is still
any good. Either the belt is way too tight, the tensioner is no good, or
a sprocket is not true. How did you set the tension?

I have an 85 Shelby Charger. It has the standard square tooth timing
belt setup. Last night, when I started tearing it down to do the T2
conversion, I found that the belt was chewed up on one side, and it was
riding over the lip of the tensioner and was wearing into the timing
belt cover.

didnt want to cut down the quality of them, so forgive me if you are on
dial-up...
