Default GTO vs. F-Body compressors.

Anyone know if the GTO compressor will fit on the f body bracket or vice versa?
The compressor on my swap hits the headers I got, and I want to know if they will interchange.

If I remember correctly, the only difference is in the diameter of the compressor and where the lines enter the compressor. You can also cut the mounting bracket down a little to move the compressor closer to the block. The legs that mount to the block can be trimmed down quite a bit and the angled brace across the rear of the bracket can be removed completely. The GTO compressor is slightly smaller in diameter and the lines enter the side of the case instead of the rear.
