Should be the right size then.

Let's get back to helping the OP with his issue.

The idler pulley is going to settle in under the blower pulley at a certain position regardless how hard you pry. The belt wrap will be the same either way. So why not make it easy on yourself. You can get the pulleys right next to each other without prying on only one side. The tension comes in because prying on only one side doesn't gain you much. As long as you don't release the tensioner all the way to the idler when setting it you will be fine. I've had zero problems with mine. And it takes 30 seconds and very little prying to set it up.
Oh, and I am the OP and this is exactly what the thread was about.
