F1A with Air Conditioning???

Has anyone actually been able to still run the A/C with a F1 in a F-body?

All you have to do is move the radiator and condensor forward about an inch.

Are you actually running a F1 series and have done it or helped someone do it? To come off of the supercharger with a 4 inch elbow you need to move the bottom of the radiator forward alot more than 1 inch. If I wanted to run just a half round air filter then yes half an inch would work.
