Hmm I did see some adapters for the ac compressor to an AC lines. I'm curious to see how you route these lines on this setup. I may follow your footsteps if it comes out clean. I know Aeroquip has A/C fittings that you can assemble to your liking.

Took it to R. A. W. Racing in Ft Lauderdale, but might do it with a different shop. I'll keep you posted on what I end up doing

The fuel line is not the final setup, just a placeholder for now.

I'm still new to this swap and learning all of the intricacies so I apologize if this is a rookie question... but is that the stock returnless fuel system? Anyone know what the stock fuel line/pump can support? I would think a well running LS engine would get starved.

the stock system in the car and on the LS2 I have are returnless.

There's a forum member I can't remember the name right now, (search budget 10k swap) who is running the stock pump on an LS1 and has been for years without issues.

I've read of some people using the vent lines as returns, but I haven't found much more info on that yet. I'll probably go the same route as you on with the returnless setup.

AC lines are done, didn't take any pics.

Put the inside of the car pretty much together.

Car is really, really close to being complete.
