I'm getting some supplies for a spring tune up on my 2004 and my serpentine belt is one of the items that was showing some wear. Curious is there a tensioner pulley on a '04 or do I need to adjust this after so many miles?

Yes, you have a tensioner on the passenger side. As long as you've got the right replacement belt the job only takes about 5 minutes.

Good to know, I didn't get the belt yesterday but will today. I would suppose you know the part number? Thanks

Well, I'm a big fan of the Goodyear Gatorback belts and that part number is 4060798 6PK2025.
AND, not that you need one or will need one for a long time, but the LS2 tensioner part number 12569301 is a direct bolt on for the LS1/6 engines and it has higher pulley sides so the belt can't slip off as easily. A very nice piece and a good up grade, especially for the track.

The LS2 tensioner will direct fit the one that is currently on it? Just more tension??

Two bolts and the LS2 tensioner replaces the LS1 tensioner directly. There is no more tension, that's the same but the LS2 has a pulley that lets the belt set deeper in it than the LS1.
LS1 = ^----------^ LS2 = A_____________A (Weee, graphics)
