I just moved the stock idler pulley to an exsisting hole right under the alternator, and used washers to space it out, had to get a longer belt to make it work.. Heres the thread... Look on page 3 for some detailed pics...

this is the method i used. make sure and use the largest diameter washer you can fit. i used small diameter washers at first and it would pull the bolt over a little. other than that it works perfect for less than 10 bux

Built 408's method is the easiest and very slick however I prefer a tad bit more belt wrap around all critical pulleys (crank in particular). I opt for the billet relocator bracket for that reason. Here is a shot of mine:
