My solution was to relocate the crossover cable connection on the bracket so it was pivoted downward as to clear the turbo housing. I think the bracket was cut and welded in about six or eight spots so it would clear and shift properly. I was fortunate, as I figured out this "issue" before the motor went in. Working out issues like this on a engine stand is a whole lot easier than in the car.
