alright guys i'm starting to clean up the engine bay

i'm swapping over a GSR B18C1 and i want to remove the ac out of the vehicle to make the bay cleaner / loose weight.

I've stripped the whole engine bay including all lines etc.
and i've pulled the motor out of the vehicle on a stand now

on the motor side all i have to do is remove the pump and belt of the a/c right ????
as for the engine bay i've removed all lines but do i have to plug anything up when reinstall w/o a/c ??? i know there are some lines that go to the inside. would i have to plug those up ???
once removed i can still keep my heat right ???
i can also remove the fan right ???

if anyone can give me detail discription of full removal and reinstall w/o a/c that would be awasome

pics help too

No need to plug anything up. Those lines run super cooled air into this sort of radiator thing inside the cabin of the vehicle. When you have the AC on the blower just pushes air through this "radiator" which is really called the evaporator. It is #10 in the image below.



Now you could actually remove this too if you wanted to pull EVERYTHING for the AC. If you did that you would need to plug the area where it enters the cabin of the vehicle, but if you leave it in there you are fine as is.
