Default 3.0 Under Drive Pulley

So I just bought an under drive pulley for my 3.0. My question is do i need a different belt for this or can I use my stock belt?

When you buy the set from I can't remember the website the set comes with a new gator belt. But I don't see why you couldn't use the stock belt. But since you have it off, check for cracks and replace if needed!!!!

put the pulley on, take a piece of string and loop it around all the pulleys in the proper order. then measure how long the string is.

Is there anywhere online that I can buy the belt that was supposed to come with this pulley? I tried their website but it says they don't sell these pulleys anymore
