think about belt routing then and perhaps what you can do without. ie, without a/c or power steering (go electric) you've got more room for the s/c and pulley. also, without a/c you've got condensers for an air/water intercooler ...

also, consider removing the resonance tube and intake plenum and put your air/water intercooler there. no need for a resonance flapper or flow optimization if boosting.

perhaps math out the s/c (it's a 45 iirc?) to see if it can even feed a 3.2 properly. i thought that it should be able to but for some reason it has not performed on the 3.2 in the few limited applications i've read about. i mean, if you are relocating the s/c it becomes pretty much a scratch build anyways so perhaps consider a long snout s/c that might package better.
