Should have put this on here earlier for future reference.
The tensioner that comes in the kit actually has a marker to show when it's up to tension.
Bolt the tensioner to the block loosely, fit the belt and use a 5 mm allen key to turn the tensioner until the pointer lines up with the notch. Tighten the bolt and then turn the belt one full turn (4 turns of the crank pully). Check tensioner and re adjust if needed. Also need to reinsert your locking pins to make sure everything is still lined up.
