u wont need any tensioner.... u will be using the altenator as one......

i swaped out my 1.2 8v for a c16xe only last week.

i had to get a braket made up... simple

it ma be different on yours

adam-d done one a 1.4 8v to c16xe and he just used the brackets off the 1.4 8v.

use the both brakets and the altenator itself off your 1.4....

u will need to change the crankshaft pulley to do this.

or u could use the altenator thats on the c16xe and get a bracket made up as i have mentioned above.......
