Default Well, I have been there and done that as well

using S & P mounts no way can you use a stock a/c compressor in the stock location. I did, however, move the frame horns up in the frames and used the s& p mounts. I did this to keep the LS1 oil pan from hanging down past the cross member. By rasing the motor in the car about 3/4 of an inch, it left me enough room to use the S & P lower a/c bracket and a 508 compressor. The S & P bracket mover the a/c to run off of the main belt. The other benefit or raising the motor besides the oil pan is you can also use the f body alternator in the stock location as well.

I then notched the frame for the a/c, not very much, and it fit fine. I will have to look for photos.

Of course I did all of this work to pull the frame and install a 21st century unit.

I raised the tunnel in the car also.
