Anyone with a TII swap using a turblown SS manifold?

Hey guys,
I've got the engine in my widebody now and I don't like how the GReddy cast turbo manifold is positioning my turbo. So I am looking at different manifolds. I'm wondering if anyone has used a turblown manifold on a TII swap in FB, basically im only worried about passenger fender clearance. I'm using a T60-1.

Properly not the greatest section for this, but there is alot of TII FB builds lately and i'm just curious if anyone has experience with this. (the single turbo section is basically all FC/FD guys)

Thanks

I talked to Robert and he informed me that I can actually rotate the compressor housing. News to me, he just saved me alot of money...

Heres a couple pictures showing what i'm talking about (engine bay needs to be painted at some point...).

Yeah, you can loosen a few bolts, and just clock it in whatever direction you prefer. I have mine pointed down.
