Belt tensioner pully question
Hi all,i need to replace the belt tensioner pulley on my 1992 LT1 and have a question.
Is the bolt that holds the pulley a left handed thread? as in to loosen it turn clockwise ? or is it counterclockwise?
Thank you in advance.

I had to pull mine out to replace the pulley. This required I remove the power steering pulley with a puller to get in there.

I don't remember this being the case... but its been about 9 months since I replaced mine. Look at how it is installed on the car. If you put a wrench or socket on it to push it over for the belt install/removal that will be the direction that tightens it. Opposite will remove it.
