Default exhaust manifold burned through my ac line!!!

like the title says, my ac line right behind the radiator fans has a big hole in it now. my exhaust manifold kinda burned through now it's customized with a rubber hose. my ac line is just a rubber hose with the ends clamped up to the fittings that i cut off from the broken ac line. should work but does it matter if it's not metal(my customized line that is), since the original ac line is metal?? will i have any problems. thanx in advance guys

Theoretically I would say that the new line should work...however if your exhaust mani ate through a metal line...your rubber one won't last very long. Get a heat shield or some heat wrap.

i made the rubber one a lot shorter so it's not touching the headers no more so that should be ok

all i can say is... EARLS..... spend a little more and you'll have a nice looking ac line.

get the right fittings and people will look at it and think you have an extra water cooler or somthing like that.hahah
