The post that I found the part # from, stated that it was $40, posted by andrew titled "belt tensioner". So this is just a warning that the price has sky rocketed. Does anyone know the price from Ford?

At advanced it took like 2 seconds for the right part for less money. (no where near $78). Took like 5 minutes to fix too. 1998.5 Diamond White Pearl SVT (#4725) custom exhaust/intake k&N/mod'ed y-pipe slotted rotors/greenstuff pads/SS lines cougar trans/FSVT shift tower/Torsen 16lb. flywheel 18" Velox VX-8's with some rubba bands

The tensioner is marked with #297-1674134 on it, and the torx bolt is 9.8 (strength?), and has marked #69 on it. Hope this will save people some money.
