Just the tensioner and necessary hardware. The bracket is the one that the kit originally came with.

Negative.

If you have the time, take a trip out here. I would like to see it.

I also had alignment issues. Went through several belts. I got it resolved by going with 2 100mm Metco idler pulleys. And for the tensioner pulley I used a thin washer behind the pulley to move it foward.

I placed the thin washer behind the tensioner pulley. Something else. Instead of using the Magnacharger supplied tensioner - I used a Gates Pulley I purchased from NAPA part # 38131. It worked for me .
