I don't think you need the alternator on the car to bump the starter. I had mine disconnected last week when I was replacing my harmonic balancer and it worked fine.
Are you bumping it at the diagnostic socket in the fuse box? That's what I did.
Socket only works on the auto trans. You put a socket on one of the bolts that holds the torque convertor to the flex plate. I just used a really big screwdriver in the teeth of the flywheel and wedged against the flywheel cover in the timing opening and held it with one hand while I re-torqued the crank bolt with the other and had no problem tightening it to spec--YMMV.
