Clam shell's LS and Low mount AC...

So this has probably been killed here but I'm not having luck on specifics...

I have a 2005 4.8 LS Turbo being dropped into my 1974 C10... sounds simple enough but.

Clam Shell SBC engine mounts, LS engine mount adapter, and low mount Vintage Air are not cooperating, specifically I can't get the clam shell to mount to the adapter because the VA Compressor mount is in the way.

The adapter I have is from ICT, typical multi position flat plate which by itself mounts up fine with the VA bracket. I just don't have the room to mount the clam shell.

Do I need to modify the clam shell, looks like there is enough meat there to allow me to cut away enough to make it fit.

I noticed Dirty Dingo has a adaptor/mount which they say clears the low mount AC bracket, do I just run that?

Any other options out there?
