I've only taken the alternator off with the engine removed, so others can correct me if this is not correct with the engine in the car. You should be able to pull the long bolt with the pulley on it as you have, loosen the other alternator bolt, and swing the alternator up using the other bolt as a hinge. I don't know if that gives enough clearance though. If you do end up taking your alternator out, I'd suggest disconnecting the battery to eliminate the possibility of a dead short to ground from the battery lead on the alternator,
