Out of 40amp slots

So I've run into quite a funky problem that I've never seen before. Heres a list of motors and what their used for on our robot:

2 Banebots (conveyor)
2 FP (shooter)
4 CIMs (drive)

4+4=8, the exact number of the 40amp slots on the P/D board.

Problem is, were missing our bridge manipulator which is most likely two window motors. And I'd like to put those in the 40amp, as they need the power. Would anyone recommend putting a victor/jag into a 30amp for something like a conveyor belt?? It seems like it should be fine, but I thought I'd check.
