AC system removal... any tips? Anything to leave in?
Going to ditch the AC system on the '98 as the compressor is shot anyway. Can I just push on the schrader valve to vent the AC and just start unscrewing stuff? Can I remove the dehydrator thing too? I want to remove as much misc. un-needed crap as possible.
Thanks,
B

Technically you're "supposed" to go to a shop that has a system to reclaim the freon.
When I pulled my AC one of the lines broke as I was messing around and it vented out before I realized what had happened.
I'm such an environmental terrorist.

Got the vette from a local guy who didnt know what he had... It was hit up front after going off in turn 6 at VIR. Was repaired and has the goods: DRM coil-overs, T1 bars, rollbar, etc.
