A/C removal
I'm in the middle of a cam swap and I am also removing the a/c since it doesn't work anyway. The compressor and condensor are already out, but what else do I need to remove/change? Thanks in advance.

Re: A/C removal (Ryan77)
If you want the car to run a little cooler and remove any and all excess weight associated with the A/C, remember the consdensor core and evaporator (in front of the radiator). I pulled an entire system from my '71 without removing the hood (or scratching the paint).
Since you may change your mind or sell the car some day (you never know), be sure to keep all bolts, washers, o-rings, etc.

You and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum. I just installed a new pump and did some hose modifacations. Nice and cold A/C :) I really need it in the climate I am in!
