you might have to take it off the manifold to spin around, you can rotate it 360 degrees.

loosen all the bolts and take a rubber mallet and tap the compressor to free it up so that it can turn.

Hmm... looks as if maybe you can't rotate the compressor housing because it's wedged onto the web on the block... can't be sure, but in your second pic it looks as if the manifold nut isn't on all the way yet but the compressor housing is hitting the block... did you grind/notch the web? Most manifolds require this to work with T3/T4 hybrids...
