If you run the hoses too close to the block you are at risk of blowing one or both. The return hose gets hot on it's own so the extra heat will take it way past the rated levels. The AC will also not work worth shit. They are placed where they are for a reason not just conveneince. If that 15 pounds savings and aesthetics when the hood are open then just do the delete. You may able to relocate if you wrap them in a heat resistant material but I am not optimistic it would work.
Personally if I lived in California that AC would be one of my most important things.
