Default 92 AC Delete

Hello All

I want to remove the ac from my 92 and was wondering if I could get some direction on what can go and what needs to stay? Any help would be appreciated.I cant find any threads regarding LT1 cars.

Thanks

Will need this expensive little item

Then just a matter of removing the whole system inc the condenser in front of radiator
Possibly some minor wiring mods associated with the pressure switches

that will do it. I still have the hard lines coming from the "blower box" but everything else is gone. I did not need any wiring mods

May get motivated to remove the rest of the stuff when I tear the interior out.

I did this on my 94 firebird, including smashing out the doghouse and pulling all hard lines, coil, etc.
I ordered a delete pulley off fleabay, cost about $25. Really cleans up the engine bay. Still got to fabricate a plate to cover the hole where the doghouse used to be, so I can retain the heater and blower.

I saw a mod a little while back to turn the A/C coil into a trans cooler. I would link it if I could find it, but I cant...
