I would imagine you could use the 5mm x 0.5mm alloy spacer from the trf501x and trf511.( bb6 ) part no: 9804246. might be worth checking the width. The belt tensioners are not really needed as they don't tend to jump, but if you add them make sure that the bearings are just clear of the belt and are not touching.....
