i ran mine always 1/8+ over the top,my local polaris told it was not enough that i have too belt deflection,if you go higher the lower top speed the clutch will achieve.

thats pretty much normal,you need to take a straight edge and rest it along the belt,between the clutches..make sure the belt is at the highest point in the driven clutch,then put some tension on the belt and measure from the center of the belt to the straight edge.
