A bigger cam actually requires more idle so no negative effect. Cam in sg idles 900. Plus you can always get a OD AC pulley if it becomes an issue....

If you have to be disconect the AC at some point during the swap, a lot of people say it is never the same afterwards. Mine blows cold as ever, but I had EPP do all my work. Something to consider.

The A/C will still work just fine.

I've done multiple cam installs, had heads off, etc, and I have my entire engine, trans, and K member out of the car at the moment, and I've NEVER had to disconnect anything to do with the A/C.
