GTO AC Compressor vs Vortec truck compressor??

Anyone know the difference between a GTO and Vortec truck AC compressor. Both have the outlet fittings on the side. The GTO mounts with the bolts horizontally, vortec vertically. Need to use one or the other for hose clearance/frame.

The pulley is probably a different spacing. I know that the truck one sticks out 1.5 inches further than the vette, and the f-body sticks out 0.75 inches further than the vette. Not sure where the GTO falls in there.
