twizted,
Nice setup. I think you should machine the Ford logo off and somehow put lexus on it though, that would be hot!
I used timing belt idler pulleys from a v-6 camry to both route the belt on the bracket and to replace the stock, ribbed idler pulley on the top.
Here's a pic of my homemade tensioner. An L bracket, a bolt and a couple of nuts. About $5 worth of material and about 10 minutes to make. So far no problems with it.

BTW guys, thought you might be interested, there's a guy over at Soarer Central doing a centrifugal setup. He's NOT using the "fish" bracket, he's using a bracket that is made in Australia and he says quote "I am not using the 'FISH' bracket. I am using a different bracket that is made here in Oz to suit the soarer so I guess it accommodates more of the auxiliary stuff than the LS400 derived 'fish'".
I'm trying to find out more info, too late for me but could be something to look at for those wanting an FI setup.

Here's a link to a little more info on the other bracket. He's supposed to PM me with more info. IMO, it looks MUCH better for use on an SC400.
