I did the same for the most part. I didn't do the SE compensator but I did update to a welded rotor with matching stator and had already installed the baker bearing. My tensioner looked to be OK, not the poorly made POS I have seen pictures of so it stayed.

Thanks!
They will, but they will not do so under warranty so you will end up paying for all of the parts AND labor. Or you could support your local garage monkey.....

If you have the 2 part bolted stator and it hasn't failed you can make sure the bolts are tight and spot weld them so they don't come loose. Good insurance and cheaper than replacing the rotor/stator combo.
