Everything is still tight and nothing broken.
Took a wax marker while running (no belt) and there is a "slight" high spot.

**On interesting thing I tried. With the lightly longer belt I was able to get the larger factory idler back on.
Even though I have the new bearing in the LET idler, since the lager idler will cut the rpms just about in half I think in may be the better choice.

Roughly the circumferences are:
LET: 4.43"
Factory: 8.63"
So there is a huge difference in rpms and the belt should get a bit more bit on the SC pulley due to a better angle.
