Default A&A V3 Si Gatorback/Continental Elite Belt Size/P#?

I'm just double checking here so sorry for a seemingly easy question! I have an A&A V3 Si kit installed on my LS2 C6. I'm in Cali so my kit is a stock as allowed here using a 4" standard pulley and OEM pulleys for everything. I have a slight "chirp" that happens when cold starting that goes away when warmed up. Pulley alignment is good, HB is a new Powerbond SS, & new idler pulleys all around when I installed the kit. So I'm pretty confident it's just belt chirp.

Based on past experience, I swapped to a Continental Elite (former Gatorback) belt and all was well. I looked into it a bit and found other A&A users that fixed their belt chirp with this, but they were older posts so the part #'s were for Gatorbacks. The kit came with a Gates K060915 belt. Belt length is 92-1/8 OD, & 91-9/16 effective length. I couldn't find a Continental Elite belt in this exact size, but the 4060919 is listed as a 91.9" belt. Couldn't find a OD or "effective" length, just a "length" spec. From what I can tell I can adjust the idler pulley on the A&A bracket and should be fine.

I know were talking very small amounts, but just curious to hear from anyone that's used a Continental belt on an A&A kit before I order and install one. It's not the easiest belt swap so I figured it can't hurt to ask the forums
