Finally got my RJ60+ Help needed

Yes it can work but I'm not sure I would want more plumbing going on in that little small area.
I like @wireform’s idea of putting it over at the heat pump output. You could make it pretty clean there, even digging down to relocate where those pipes go down/up. In addition, I would use the opportunity to put a bypass for your heater since you have an IFCS (significant pressure/flow loss for IFCS with heater always in line) unless you use your heat pump often.
Don’t hesitate to replace any heater/filter unions if it helps. I used these:
If you are set on changes near the filter and you had to, any of those existing pvc fixtures can be “reamed out” and reconnected using one of these:
This one worked great for me.
It doesn’t seem that moving the filter on it’s pad does any good for you but that is also an easy option if you can find any advantage to do it.
Finally…
Looks like that T and associated valve can be moved/adjusted fairly easily if you need to, is that valve for a Venturi skimmer?

I moved the chiller over, the electric was had enough to slide it 2 ft over. Had to extend the bonding wire but here it is.

Good job. I would rotate the cell 180° so the hump is down. This will help keep air bubbles from forming on top of the cell and exposing the plates.

You may wish to consider a heater bypass as this will allow running the pump at a lower rpm while still satisfying the SWG flow switch.
