Anyone using the Rotary Works TB Elbow?

I got my Rotary Works TB elbow in a couple days ago and went out to put it on the car today. It fits on the TB like it should, but when I put the UIM+TB back on the car, I don't see how I can fit anything on it without hitting the brakes. Anyone else running one of these or have some advice? Will I have to move proportioning valve and make new hardlines to gain clearance?

Here is the problem:

I thought I was all out of coupler elbows (why I posted asking instead of just trying), but found one that had been hiding, and put it on to check the clearance. It actually does clear if you put the coupler on the elbow far enough, it is just a close fit. This is as far as the coupler can fit on the elbow.



Here is the clearance, it is pretty tight.



So long story short, it does actually clear, might just be a reason to get stiffer motor mounts
