im buying that gnarly belt tensoiner thats for sale in the market, also there is a guy selling a nasty f1a mach here...its 8 rib also and he said he used stock tensoiners
By gnarly tensioner, do you mean the billet three bolt one? If so, it won't work on the Mach's. Ours are only a single bolt. ...........buuut, if you are buying an aftermarket single-bolt, I'd like to know the brand!

It has been a busy couple months with no time whatsoever to drive the car, let alone film it. On Sunday I had some time to take it out for some quick WOT runs on an empty side road near my house. It's a short length of road so I could never do any pulls in 4th. After my dad recovers from surgery, I hope to get some runs against him on film ('03 Cobra powered A/C Cobra) and a grudge match with a buddy at work (383 Stroked El Camino ...possibly spraying).

Nice setup! I posted in another thread pertaining to the BGG 8-rib setup. I just ordered the setup from Dave for my 01 Cobra running a P1SC with power pipe. I'm really concered now with the temp sensor clearance. Dave said everything should work fine but it doesn't appear that way. I really wish there was more info on the 8-rib install you did cause some other Cobra guys are talking about power steering pulley pulley's and I'm like WTF are you talking about cause I just bought this thing, lol. Beggars can't be choosers but with my slow brain and low tolerance for problems I'm not sure how this will turn out. Dave said to buy a pulley puller tool but I'm still like WTF. Any tips???

You do need a pulley puller for the power steering pump (AutoZone or Advance has 'em). I used a strap wrench to hold my crank pulley in order to get the bolt loose. An impact gun is needed for the alternator pulley. Everything else can be removed/installed using normal tools (IIRC).
