Default M122 build on 00 f body need help

Bought the blower from a friend. Have a complete ls6 ready to go in. Clearance is my main concern. The 122 is no taller than a 112 just longer. So a cowl hood should take care of that. But I need to lower the k member. I've seen a kit to lower it on gm high-tech write up but I can't seem to find it for sale. I dont want to buy a tubular if I don't have too. Where do i buy this kit, where does it go How low can I lower a stock k?

Could be wrong but, I would imagine the clearance issue would be with the ground and the oil pan/member. I notched my cross member 2 inches to fit my 5.3 swap. Was cheap and easy. Maybe you could do that and make some motor mount plates to drop the motor equally. Just watch the pinion angle. How much clearance do you need? Have you seen Pockets side mounted m122? I side mounted my M112.

im working on a low profile version for vette and camaros. and it should fit a 4th gen. but intercooling without creating more heat is become a task.
