It is mostly, in my case there is a 0 at the end. The Dayco part number called for (with AC) is 5060950 which is 95.08" long. So I got a Dayco 5060960 which is 96.06" long and it is still working today.

I had the stock CS130D alt, And it was 11 years old She did her job But it was time for a new/upgrade Grabbed the Ad-244 145Amp and did some looking into belts sizes online and on hand Many people saying 1 inch to 1.5 inches from my stock belt from the CS130D (K060950 = 95.0" belt)
I have a 2005 Chevy Blazer 2dr 4.3L with A/C Incase people are thinking about with or without A/C Now I figure anything at 1 inch and (Just over) is in the perfect zone. Remember there is a belt tensoner if you have that arm at extremes you will #1 have the belt slip off or #2 wear the bearings in the arm alot quicker if its too tight. if your tensoner is pushed all the way in its too tight. The ( K060956 ) = 95.6 inches (inside length) Fits on tight There's is very little arm movement from the spring in the arm
I went with the Continental 4060960 96.0" V-belt 6 Ribs ( You can cross check part numbers for other brands IE : Gates, Bando, Dayco, Goodyear, etc or Have the counter parts guy do it ( bring your old belt and explain you have a bigger alt and need 1 to 1.5 inches
But rule of thumb is the last three digits is the size of the belt of the Inside (not the outside part of the belt.) The outside is slightly larger due to the thickness of the belt as i have posted all inside lengths these are the sizes that fit on..
Someone had posted on here ( AD244 alternator swap belt MADNESS )
and said the outside sizes of belts and confused the hell out of me because the outside numbers were not matching part numbers and trying to cross check parts with brands to sizes ...forget it lol ....Anyways hope it helps
