I have formatted the SSD drive and clover only shows the usb as the only bootable disk.

As you should expect.
You won't have a bootable target on the SSD until you run the macOS installer.

For people who have some BCM94352 cards with A connector lying around, I used a dremel to make it fit in a XPS 13 or other M.2 E connector type. See pictures how, works perfectly.

I meant after the installation

I meant after the installation

you need apfs.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/

From where did you download macOS?
On what hardware did you create your USB installer?
What version?

I downloaded macOS Sierra from a 2014 MBPR running Sierra 10.12.6
I used a 2011 MBP running Sierra 10.12.6
The version I am attempting to install is Sierra 10.12.6

Not sure if I am able to run those terminal commands as I am unable to fully boot into the desktop.
Pretty much the installer looks like it is unable to complete, because with about 6 seconds left on the installer the laptop shuts off completely. When I reboot into Clover and select "Boot OS X Install from install_osx" it takes me back to the initial setup with the language select, and it does not continue the setup into phase 2. Thanks in advance.

Always something to learn from you !!
Thanks it Works (I 've just move the .Kext from the EFI to L/E and rebuilt the caches)

set config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Fixes/FixHeaders_20000000=true

No luck, it has the same panic

you need apfs.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/

apfs.efi is in said folder

Your version of Clover is too old (it does not have the FixHeaders feature).
