T50 Torx bolt too, and if it strips you cannot order just the bolt from GM. You have to pay 140 odd dollars for the whole tensioner assembly or find someone who has a spare laying around.

...So the GTP bolt fits and is reverse threaded, but the only difference is that it'* a 15mm instead of the dreaded torx? If so im definately going to have to either see if the dealer can get me that or go scour the junkyards. Either way is good because theres alot more GTP'* in the yards around here than SSEi'*, much less 00+

Yup, the bolt works, but I am fairly sure the SC belt tensioner is different between the H and W-bodies. I know the tensioner seperates from the bracket on the W-body, haven't gotten around to see if the the H-body SC tensioner is removable from the bracket.
