As you can tell from the width of the brackets and a slight additional bend on the vertical portion of the larger one the condenser is slightly to the right of center to give a bit of room for the fittings but nothing special other than that. Looking closely if doing it again I would have moved it to the right another 1/8" or so because the hose just barely clears the horn on the left.

Here is the measurements I have from the approximate center of the round condenser manifold tube to the edge of the fender flange just below the top hole. My fenders measure 40 1/2 from flange edge to flange edge with the condenser positioned slightly offset as shown. Am assuming you are reversing your condenser to have the connections on the right to better reach your compressor but that should not make too much difference.
