About to start a h/c/i swap, my question is this. the car has the a/c systom intact and blows ice cold so I want to keep it, I know i can take the compressor loose and lay it out of the way with out cracking the lines open and loosing the charge (Ithink) but is it possible to get the cam out/in without removing the condensor? if I take it loose will i be able to move it enough to get the room i need ? thanks for any help.

i think you will have enough space with the condenser in, but you have to drain and remove the radiator. you can just move the ac lines out of the way thats how i did mine.

leave the lines hooked up to the condenser. just unbolt it and swing it up towards the pass side and let it rest on the pass fender.
