RC2 Manfrotto Ballhead to Arca Swiss

I have a RC2 Ballhead attached to my tripod and I have attached to my camera a carryspeed adaptor that has an Arca Swiss option on it. I have been looking for an adaptor to set in my ballhead that would turn it into an arca swiss.
I have seen these around somewhere, but cant find it for some reason. Does anyone here know what I am referring to?

I don't think it's either one actually. I don't want to permanently convert my rc2 ball head. There was a conversion arca swiss clamp that the rc2 mount screwed into so that you didn't have to use 2 tripods with 2 systems.

I've emailed them and asked if it possible. What I am seeing is that it will fit in the RC2 clamp.. but the top is actually the reverse of what I need.
I need the arca swiss quick release adaptor to mount on top of the rc2 quick release plate. in other words... I'm trying to turn my RC2 Ballhead into an arcs swiss without actually removing the RC2 clamp system. I might just have to convert into the arcs swiss system instead, but it may be a little cheaper this way.

I buy most of my arca-swiss type components from this guy. High quality materials and are built tougher.
