Does anyone know how to make a/c lines? I want to relocate my dryer out of the way, maybe behind the bumper. this is because I am building a turbo kit and am keeping a/c.
(in case you are wondering I do have my 609)
I was also thinking about turning the compressor around and top mounting it along with the alt. so I can use truck/c6 manifolds and route where a/c used to be.
heres a crude picture I drew real quick to give you an idea of how it could be.
the compressor would be in the area between the motor and the strut tower. theres a descent amount of space at the top there.

hi bud, you can make all of the hoses from "ez-clip" fittings. you can buy the special fittings and hoses from a place like this, http://hosewarehouse.com/Field-Specific/Field-Specific-EZ-Clip-A-C-Hose-and-Fittings
I built my ac system from that stuff and it turned out pretty good.
I don't know nuthin' about doing it right, but I once fitted
rear air to my old Chevy van using nothing but hose clamps,
brass T-blocks and copper tubing, a residential evap
(and a blower from a Fiat, because it was laying around),
and it worked like a champ for about a decade. You might
be overthinking it. I think I used two hose clamps per
position. It didn't lose Freon any quicker than my newer
cars, and this was with a who-knows-how-old retrofit
York compressor (the front air was aftermarket, when I
got the van - at 10+ years old).
