I have the BBSHD kit on my mtb. It is so much fun. However, my drive sprocket needs to move closer to the bike by about 10mm. My sprocket is the two part design. I see the generic word offset used to describe a drive sprocket for this bike. I see one piece sprockets using the inner bolt pattern. Is there an extra offset sprocket available? Otherwise, I will put a second sprocket on the bike and manually change it if needed.
 
Check out the Lekkie Bling Ring. It won't give you all of the offset you want, but it will help bring your chainline in. There are other style of the offset chainring that are less expensive.

I have a Bafang kit and my chainline is off too. If your bottom bracket is wider than 68mm you'll have a worse chainlines. I basically don't use 1st, 2nd, or 9th gears. I purchased the 42T Bling Ring.
 
What size are you looking for? As you go bigger it will get closer to your chainstay and smaller will step further away, so you also need to take that into account.
 
Last night I purchased a 40T two piece drive sprocket on line. I have a machine shop and I will modify/bore the sprocket and make offset mounts. I made a battery support. See picture. I also learned the hard way to use a two sided velcro strip to keep my jeans out of the sprocket.
