Default Quick question about AC

I was wondering, where do you guys get your AC lines and such from. I looked on the internet for awhile and only found one place and they didn't mention doing exactly what I need. I'm using a stock C5 AC compressor with my S10 swap. I am in need mostly of the plate that bolts onto the back of the AC compressor that the lines come outta of. The lines are gonna have to be oval shaped to give me maximum clearance on the bottom because the outlet on the bottom most port is real close to the boxed part on my frame. I would have given it more room but I really can't go any further being my front A-arm is close and also everything would protrude into the coil spring pocket. Thanks a bunch.
