Default What A/C line setups are used?

I have a 04 GTO LS1 w/T56 and the a/c lines sit very close to my frame rail and in was wondering what other people are doing about custom lines. I can have a billet piece machined to accommodate AN fittings for the lines where hey attach to the compressor and then anyone can have their lines made to screw onto it. Doing this would allow the lines to come off the compressor either out the back or front depending on what more people prefer. Is this something I should look into making would anyone be interested in something like this?

I'm pretty sure AN lines aren't going to hold freon for long. Take a look at Docs Blocks, they prolly already have what you need.

You will need the correct head off the back of the compresser(Vintage Air), and will need to use the "o" ring fittings to hold the refrigerant. I make my own AC lines so can't tell what you have to work with.
