Just for future reference for anyone with the same idea as me.
You can not run a T3 BW V-band turbine with a Turbonetics exhaust manifold. No, not even with a spacer. You need a minimum of 1" of extra clearence between the exhaust ports and the manifold so the turbine doesn't hit the block. Even with a 1/2" spacer between the head/manifold and another 1/2" spacer between the manifold and the turbine flange, it still won't work.
Just posting this up so no one else gets into trouble trying to run this combo. That is all.
