i can't get leverage to tighten the belt. just curious if anyone else is having this problem and how you fixed it.

I don't see the adjusting slot. That sucker is fixed so you'll need to use a tensioner with it.

Is that a mid-mount or low-mount? I always get to them from below (becuase the slider is on the bottom side, like you said). Just a short pry bar jammed between the alternator body and whatever is handy on the water pump or mounting tabs has always gotten it done for me.

i guess i'd call it a mid mount. i'll pull it up on the ramps and try it from the bottom. this is a really cool bracket with this exception.
