Clearance issues

Hey Guys, I'm watching your conversions with great interest. I’ve got a 74 coupe in my garage with an LS2 waiting to go in it. Is also getting a 993 body that needs to be finished before I start engine work. Have nearly all body and RH parts in place, 930 long bell housing. I am going to cut the torsion tube and go with coilovers. Steve at RH tells me I might still have about a half inch clearance problem at the rear cross member, they suggest cutting out the front part of the tube, moving it back, and boxing it back in. I saw that on a couple of their cars at their shop in Vegas. I’m thinking another option; Meziere makes a -12AN block adapter that is 11/16” thick. There are a couple of options for -12AN low profile O-ring 90s. I plan on using braided hose in my engine compartment to dress it up a bit, I’m going to explore the meziere option. Haven’t test fit my engine yet. I’ll start my own thread soon, thanks for all your ideas, Ron
