Could someone describe how you swing the AC compressor out of the way for a cam swap?

I found the bolt on the top/drivers side corner, but I can't find anything else.

Also, the lines coming off the compressor look like hard lines. So you do you swing the compressor out of the way without breaking the lines??

You must mean condensor??? the one in front of the radiator??? Those are hard lines, BUT, if you notice they have o-ring type of connectors... once your ready to pull the cam....just slowly lift it to the pass side, the lines will swivel so to say.. have someone hold it while you pull the cam out...then lower it back...Its tit....
long as your gentle you should have no problem....if you hear a PSSST....that means you lost your AC charge...
