Schwitzer s256 install?

Good day,
Had a quick question about installing a S256 with a bullseye housing. Has anyone has had any similar experience with not being able to clear the front motor mount.
When i bold up my manifold and turbo, the oil drain hose/flange hits the front motor mount. I figure that cutting it would be ok but was wondering if that is wise and if anyone had a better idea/suggestion. I have already tried a 45 degree fitting but that still doesnt clear, can't tap the turbo as it is a square outlet.
Thanks.

You have to notch the mount and alot. But the mount has a reinforcement so even cut its strong enough. If you need pictures of mine let me know with a pm. I had the next series size up but the center section should be the same. Let us know what the whistle sounds like. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

I'm officially retarded. I just asked the same question about a holset 5 minutes ago. I guess the accepted route is to grind away.
