Better asked in the Class 3 Forum.
Lots of work can be needed to make a LL run correctly.

I usually use DPMS or Bushmaster lowers and DPMS semi bolt carriers with my links.  I've also used links with Colt SP1s, Colt Sporter IIs, and sear-blocked Colts with the block removed.  Functioned in an Olympic Arms lower, but that was tight.  Fits fine in Sendra lowers, and Essential Arms (Model J15) lowers.

Most other current lowers, even if they have a low shelf, need some relief work done around the back of the fire control well to give the link room to move.  Besides Bushmaster and DPMS I don't know which current lowers will take a link without modifications, but I can tell you that Spike's ST-15 requires relief milling.

I've used a Colt SP-1 and Spikes Tactical lowers.  As Circuits said, the Spikes requires a little bit of relief around the fire control group.  Nothing that a dremel can't fix.  It won't be pretty but it works and you'll be the only one to see the inside of your lower.

As far as the bolt carrier group.  Mine came with an original SP-1 carrier and my 9mm bolt I had cut back by M60Joe but there's plenty of others that can also do it.  You can get a M16 BC cut it back to SP1 specs.

I have mine in a Spikes lower with a select fire kit Run it with either a DMPS BC or a Modified M16 carrier. M60Joe will be your new best friend!
