5.0 in my tr6 oil filter and exhaust

Hi helpers. I'm fitting a 5.0 and t5 in my 70 tr6. Please see the attachments. Any advice on fitting the filter and steering shaft would be very helpful.

Use a remote oil filter and locate the can on the inner fender. Here's a kit from Summit: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/prm-10691/make/ford/model/mustang/year/1985

Couple of pics of how I did mine.
Remote filter on Driver's side of the engine bay
Steering shaft links from OEM column to OEM rack in the original location
3 heim joints and two heavy gussets through the inner fender wall to keep everything rock solid.
It looks like something that would feel a bit wrong, but I honestly can't feel any change from before.
If you blow the pic up you can see how close it comes to the valve cover on driver's side.  I ground  almost 3/16" off the corner of the aluminum valve cover to be sure it would stay clear - has never touched.
