Default AC Compressor Belt

I'm trying to replace the AC compressor belt on my 02 Z28 but the belts listed are all too long. I tried a dayco 5040410 41" belt... what gives?

Stock part should work unless you have an underdrive pulley?

The Duralast belts at Autozone have a part number scheme like this:
410K4 (A/C) 790K6 (Main)
The number after the K is the number of ribs on the belt.
The number before is the size of the belt.

Figure out how much smaller you need you belt and play with the number (probably in increments of 5 or 10) to find out a part number. That's what I did when I went with the bigger AD244 Alternator.
