Default Where to Hang the A/C out of the way?

I Tried a Search and got some different Answers but nothing that was spot on. I am pulling my engine from the Top, I dont want to disconnect the A/C lines and whatnot.. Can i just hang it up out of the way? I am removing the Radiator but leaving the condenser Any tips on where to put it so as not to interfere with pulling the engine. Also i have the TPS plate that bolts up inplace of the valley tray, Do i need to remove the heads or can i leave them on to get the engine out? Thanx!

You can just hang it down out of the way. You just don't want to put too much strain on the lines.

I used a metal coat hanger and strapped it to the frame rail. But I pulled mine out of the bottom
