i just did this and kept the same belt routing. all you have to do is get a shorter belt so that the length of belt between the water pump pulley and the alternator dont touch. this pushes the tenshioner up higher and out of the way. i did it that way because the water pump pulley is smooth and if i routed ithe belt like jimberg said the grooves of the belt would be worn down by the smooth side of the water pump pulley.
the belt i went with was 76 5/8" long (with A/C). try it out. i hope it works for you.
