Can I remove the 2 lines that I'm pointing to that run from the firewall to the waterpump? From the pictures, what else needs to be removed? Do I need to remove that entire black "box"?

You can remove the two ports on the water pump or just loop the line. If you want to fully remove the HVAC then yes you can take out the box but you'll have to pull the dash to get all of it.

Yea I think I'll just cut one of them and loop them. Quick question about that. If I remove those hoses to loop them, will any coolant or other liquid come out?

I'm going to leave the rest of it in there and just cap those two holes(Second picture, just right of the yellow dip stick).

Oh I didn't take a picture of it but the ac radiator is removed as well. I mainly removed this system because I bought the chris13131 ram air w/o ac from Speed Inc.

Yes, Coolant will come out!!! Even if you drain the Radiator you will get a significant amount of coolant out of those outlets. Just put a pan underneath and when you are done, put the coolant back in.

If you are just going to loop the hoses, You are deleting your heat... To keep the heat you must keep the heater hoses attached!!!! I have a shitload of pictures, as I just did this over last winter.. It is very involved if you want to keep the heat and lose the A/C. Let me know if you would like some Pic's posted.

^^^Yeah, what he said. Those lines supply the heater core with coolant, therefore making heat.

You didn't say you were keeping the heat, since you are keeping it leave the lines on the water pump as is
