Doooon't remove the heating system. It's one thing to remove A/C, you can take off your tops (...t-tops ) and open your windows. When you get into your car this winter freezing your nips off, you're screwed.

Not unless you drive with a snuggie or somethin'.

A/C is a must anywhere the humidity gets as high as the temp does. You might look in the drag racing section for more info...

Well if you decide to get rid of the A/C let me know because I am from Mississippi and I bought my car from a guy in Ohio and he took the A/C off of it and I wanted to kill myself after last summer. I will buy all your brackets, bolts and lines.
