Default Cutting Frame for AC Compressor, Who has done it?

I have a 1970 Chevelle, I am putting in an LS2. I plan on using the accesory kit from GM 19155067 (Which I hear is out of stock from Jegs until January). I want to cut my frame to fit the stock AC compressor in the stock location. Can the guys who have done this post pictures. I found one tonight by looking through tons of posts but I will be here all week if I keep looking.

Thanks

Yes this is the GM performance LS2/LS7 setup. I talked to jegs yesterday and they said it was out of stock until January.
Summit racing also has the setup. I am sure they are out as well.

I wish someone here has purchased this setup so I can verify that this is the correct one.
