Unhappy Car keeps bouncing off my AC belt

Ever since I did my cam swap.. My car won't keep an AC belt on for longer then 20 miles. I bounces the belt over and shreds off a rib and then continues until it destroys the belt. It also takes the Serpentine with it on its way out. I tried going with a belt that is one size smaller but it's to small for the setup. Any Ideas??

If the belt is the proper size then you probably need to check the tensioner. Might need replacing.
