Default Engine Removal and A/C

Question about removing the 951's engine...

Is it possible to move the A/C compressor out of the way and keep the lines to it connected when removing the engine ? I need to take the engine out of my 951 and would rather not open up the A/C system as I just spent $200 getting it serviced, and I have no way to evacuate the system safely anyway...

Am I out of luck ?

You can leave it connected, just pull it back out of the way.

yup, use some rope/bungie cords to hook it up to the side of the enigne, maybe on the shock tower, don't let that line hold the weight, pretty simple, I was glad to find that out as well!
