Rest clearance issues with Hoyt bows (Helix in particular)

I picked up a used Hoyt Helix this week and when going to mount a Vaportrail Limb Driver Pro V this evening, I ran into issues with the containment cage around the rest hitting the bridged portion of the bow's riser. It can be made to work, I'll just be severely limited on my ability to adjust the rest. I previously had this rest mounted on a Hoyt Pro Defiant with no issues so maybe it's just a quirk of this particular bow/rest combo, but I've got to think I'm not the first guy to run into rest clearance problems with Hoyt's trademark bridged "TEC" riser design.

I'm thinking about switching to a different rest make/model (limb-driven preferred, containment mechanism required) but wanted to see what other folks have successfully used with a Helix so I don't run into clearance issues again. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer!
