What accessories and mounts I can use with my swap that keeps the low mount a/c while clearing the frame? I want to avoid a notching the frame of all possible

Another good one!!! I use ictbillet on my build.
That looks like the kit i plan on using. It looks well designed to keep everything compact to the engine. How do you like it? That's the one that uses the ls3 water pump correct?
I've got their swap plates and their gen3 front cover with oil drains.

Correct, that is for the LS3 water pump. Please be aware that a bunch of people are advertising the LSA water pump as a LS3. THEY ARE DIFFERENT!!!!

Unfortunately like everything else you gain here and lose there. If your keeping the low mount A/C and your using the compressor that comes on the LS motors your likely not going to get away from notching the frame and possibly having issues with the swap plates as well. I'm working on doing the same thing. Keeping the A/C and leaving it low. There is a set of swap plates I heard some guys saying they work with the A/C not notching the frame but if you keep researching you find they don't provide good drive-line angles. I haven't looked into using the original A/C compressor? That might work but they suck (always leak). Anyhow after reading and researching and asking questions over and over I decided best to just notch the frame because I don't want the compressor up top. I'm running the corvette accessories. Got them for 500 shipped. All the brackets, alternator, water pump, the A/C compressor, bolts, balancer. So keep that in mind as you shop. Some of those after market kits are really nice if you have the extra loot.
