Shaker Kit with factory A/C Install Issue

Hi

We are working on a small block 70 Barracuda with factory air and have installed a shaker kit. By way of gaskets we have raised the 4 barrel carb up high enough so that the shaker base plate rests on the top of the compressor however we are still having difficulties with the hood fitting properly.

Is there any way that we can retain the original A/C compressor, lines, air dryer, condensor equipment or do we have to consider swapping it out with an after market kit?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thx

Kim
