It can be done. I had my car that way before I took off the A/C. If I remember correctly everything still reached to its proper place. Sorry I don't have any pictures of it but it can be done.

Yes it can be done. All the plugs for the A/C compressor, and the HP cycle switch will reach with a little coaxing.

Unfortunately I took my A/C off and do not have any pics either.

Dammit, you guys are lucky, if I take my ac off, I won't ever want to drive my car down here. 100* + weather almost year round every year.

I rerouted my main harness and relocated a few modules (ccrm, TFI, etc.) into the fenders. I still have A/C.

Only wires needed extended was the side markers. It was only like 2 inches off. A solder gun fixed that. Other then this everything reached fine. I don't have pics yet as I'm repainting the engine bay here soon.

thanks,

its far from where i want it.

hopefully this winter will be a fun one and i'll be able to get this all done along with my heads, cam, and intake swap done.

i just have to find a good place to store my car for the winter and still be able to work on it.
