Custom LS1 A/C Hoses Before I start, this is what I am working on: it is a 1990 RCSB 1/2 ton 2 wheel drive truck, it is getting a 2002 LS1. I am going to use the LS1 compressor, and the rest of the A/C stuff will be from the truck. Well I am finally up to the point where I can start getting my A/C hoses done. Now this is what I have figured out, I think. Mounted behind the compressor there is a tube that runs on top of it. Does it go to the dryer? And the hose that runs underneath, does it go to the condenser? I hope that is the way it is. I plan on getting custom hoses made soon. Pics are appreciated. Thanks for the help, Art...

The top big one goes too the evap, the bottom smaller one goes to the dryer. I was able to get the local a/c shop to weld fittings onto the f-body tubing to adapt the custom hoses between the ls1 and my factory oem a/c or doc's block sales the block that fits the compressor. They also sale a diy hose kit if your up to it.
