How about just fabricating a spacer from a piece of square tubing and using longer U bolts to move the canister away from the intake runner toward the inner fender a little? That sounds simpler than trying to find a different mounting location. You might need longer flex lines, or pieces of hard pipe from the block past the dual pipes to avoid burning the rubber lines.
