I used a floor jack with a block of wood under the oil pan to lift the engine enough to get the bolt out and the new one in, and was able to get enough room to not have to loosen the motor mounts. I think I found that tip searching this forum, but don't remember.

Bought a Goodyear tensioner/Gatorback belt combo from Amazon for I think $65 or $75.
