IIRC the auto tension setup has a tenancy to slip or fail every now and then. That is why people opted for the manual tension swap. Mind you it's not a necessity, it is a very sound conversion to do with the engine out of the car though.

Yes I would suggest the dealer or order them online from Majestic or Honda Parts deals.com. I would stay away from Autozone.
