New belt....

I called the parts store askin for a 96.8in 6 rib belt. He only had a 96.7 6 rib. Will this work?? (In case you dont know im removing my smog and need a longer belt for the rerouting)

Thanks, Jesse

I'm pretty sure 1-tenth of an inch won't make a significant difference, but I'd check around and try to get the right piece if possible.
