Jeff,
I don't know how much will interchange between a GT6 and TR6 engine,
but the GT6 and Spitfire 1500 TC tensioners are the same. So, if the
GT6 and TR6 engines use the same, it would be a safe bet that the TR6
could use the tensioner from a Spit 1500. Vicky Brit has them all day,
part # 1-843. Don't have a current price.
Hope this helps!
