Default Front accessory drive w/Ac

I have a NB car with a LS motor and I'm looking for a new accessory drive
with A/C that will fit. My C-6 vette stock drive works ok, but the A/C won't fit as it is a low mount and hits the frame. Anybody found one that looks good and the A/C will fit under the hood or not hit the frame?????

CTS-V compressor and lines will fit the bill perfectly.

Does it use a different bracket to hold the compressor?

Yes. Its a far more compact compressor.

I wish I had a decent picture to show you. FM uses them on their builds.
