Looking at Schumacher conversion mounts for Gen3. They offer a version for low mount AC compressor. What 5.7 motors have a low compressor? Don't have a motor yet, in the gathering parts mode and wondering which mounts to get.

I have the standard Schumacher mounts non-ac though and they work great. I did ask about the AC version and Mr. Schumacher stated that they are offset on the driver side to make a compromise for the compressor.

The mounts are held on by two thick long bolts that go through the polyurethane bushing. For street use they should be fine as is, but for track use they REQUIRE a lock nut on the ends as they will eventually back out from vibration and fall off.
