Do a Google search on Mustang heater core replacement. There are some online articles on how you can do the heater core replacement without disconnecting the AC lines. Somehow there is a way to loosen stuff up enough to get some slack in the lines that'll allow you to do the swap.

It's still a PITA. Good luck.
