Do I have the right belt?

I had been running the stock Eaton blower on my 2012 GT500 with a VMP 2.5" upper pulley, 90 mm idler and IW 10% and used the Goodyear 100852HD green belt. I recently went to the 13/14 TVS with the stock 13/14 upper pulley and reused the same belt, idler and 10% lower. Is that belt still OK or do I need to go to a different size? I'm probably just being paranoid but I'm worrying it's too short and will damage the blower bearings from too much tension. It slid on the tensioner ok but there isn't as much adjustment as there previously was. I'm thinking as long as the tensioner isn't maxed out and the belt slides right on it's fine. Anyone been over this road and can advise me?

Thanks!
