ls swap a/c question

So I put a cammed ls 5.3 in my 86 z.
I really want ac. I got all new componets ordered. Like the condenser and evaperator and all that stuff. I know dirty dingo makes the bracket for the compressor. What bout the ac lines. How do I get ac lines for when the compressor is on top?
And since im not useing really anything from the stock harness do I just hook power uo to the compressor and let it run till I want it off?

I don't know where you live, but a competent AC specialty shop should be able to fab up lines for you. I wouldn't take it to Firestone or Pep Boys, of course...

Search the LSx swap forum (where this thread is now). A schematic for how to hook up the electrical was recently posted.
