In near stock trim, there are two adjustments on the alternator belt. The obvious one is the bolt tensioner on the alternator itself. That's more for fine-tuning tension. The other is under the air pump which I'm assuming you still have. Loosen it and you should be golden.
Download a copy of the Factory Service Manual (FSM) from the 3rd Gen. Stickys and I believe there's an illustration. It also gives some guidance on re-tensioning. You don't want to over do it.
