Using a Cooler Master V6 with a AM4 mobo

Hello, I need some help.    

And please forgive any mistakes, english is not my mother language.

 

A friend gave me a Cooler Master V6 cooler from an old build of his, and I was wondering if it would be possible to adapt it to use in my ryzen system, I currently use a 3800X with the stock cooler. I know that cooler master doesn't officialy support this cooler anymore and doesn't have a adapter to the AM4 socket for this specific cooler. Though I've seen some similarities between it's mounting mechanism and the V8 variant. What I'd like to know is if it would be possible to use with/adapt it to the AM4 mobo I currently have.

Yeah, the original mounting mechanism for it doesn't line up, tried it just a couple of hours ago.
