Help with petcock

So I just bought a new vacuum petcock for my Suzuki GS550. Here's the part: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-GS450-GS650-GS750-GS1100-GS1150-PETCOCK/200936163227?_trksid=p2047675.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D8558667725956968608%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D360676185759%26

During installation, I ran into an issue where the vacuum fitting (shown in the picture) is bumping into the frame because of the direction it faces. I'm wondering if I can simply remove the plate with the vacuum fitting and turn it 180 degrees to face the opposite direction. Should this effect the function of the petcock?
