It would just move the end of the fill pipe inward a bit to not be a conflict during install. It wasn't a huge pain but just a suggestion for my installation method. if you have a rack and more space available it probably wouldn't be such a problem. Let me know if that makes sense.
Thanks! just making sure I understood...

So you would move the filler port and vent ~1" inward/closer to the center, 8.75" vs the standard of 9.75"

and use 10.75" from the front of the tank vs the standard 14.642"?


Reposting the diagram, since it cut off the left side dimension showing the standard filler port location of 14.642"
