Yes it can be done.
Essentially the lines run in the same position as the evap canister lines along the left longitudinal, ends up very tidy with no cutting; just enlarging a couple existing holes. The car in not yet assembled but I'll post photos when it goes together chronicling the process. |

I've been toying with how to run lines in the tunnel but when I had my tunnel apart I didn't do it and there wasn't much space in there for a large suction line. Not saying it can't be done but I punted. Likewise, I'd be more inclined to put the condensor up front with a oil cooler and/or bumper modification. |

I likely have some fit-up photos; I'll see if I can dig them up. The system was put in and taken out a few times during development, nature of custom fabrication. Here are a couple more compressor photos:     |
