Default Help with AC compressor

I have built a GEN IV 6.0 and it is in a 72 Chevelle. I really want to put AC back on the car as it came with factory air. I see most of the compressors are listed as up to 2011, then 2011 and up. Does anyone know if either will work? I am sort of tight in that area because of the frame, and want as much room as possible. Has anyone ran into this?

I don't mind moving stuff around. My main thing is, I am doing twin turbo log manifolds and I want the turbos up top nice and clean. I'm actually not running power steering, and using an electric water pump. The only things that will be running off the crank are the Alt and AC pump. I am seriously debating on cutting the rear balancer groove for 6 grooves or swapping to a 4 groove belt on the Alt and switching places. It would actually fit better to move the Alt back, and the AC pump forward.
