Smallblock alternator relocation ideas?

I called summit and had them pull that one off the shelf and measure from harmonic balancer side to center of v and it was only 2 1/4 inces. Not enough to get the belt away from the inlet hose of the proform water pump with alternator in sock position.#-o

I'm probably moving my outlet to the driver side anyways. i have a Gm radiator, so i currently have 8 miles of hose running to the waterpump outlet. or if i have to move the alternator down...guess i will.
