  • Going to try to shorten A/C line

    So I'm goign to see if I can have a spare A/C line shorten so it doesn't make that huge loop, because thats where my turbo will be sitting. I'm going to see if they can make 2 90's and run it straight down. Should have alot of space after that. Anyone try this or any input? Thanks, heres a pic:

      GM didn't really need to make it round out like it does in the engine bay. They could of made it run straight down and connect with about 6-8 " of tube or metal.

          maybe just to fill up space so it didnt look empty in there...

            Thats what my Dad said when I had him look at it to see if it could be shortened. He worked for GM for 40 years and just retired. He said the exact same thing, they did it so there wasn't a huge gap in the engine bay.LOL
