68 Chain Tensioner

I have a 68 2.0S engine I pulled this winter to check the chain tensioners. It has the 930 style tensioners with collars, I will rebuild these. It was recommended that I change my narrow idler sprocket arm and non-bushed sprocket for later styles. The set up now has the spacers. I have been unable to find these parts at a reasonable price, I know they are available new but costly. All the parts show very little wear. Should I just re-use these and call it a day, is it really necessary to replace the arm and sprocket. The car will not be tracked and may get 3k miles per year of street use. Opinions?

Supertec can modify your narrow idlers to be wide with a custom bushing.
