: Rerouting A/C plumbing

I want to install my A/c in my 78 but I do not want to have the hoses running across the engine. A while ago some one posted a picture of having the plumbing going forward from the compressor to the front of the radiator and then going back on the right side. My question is what and where do I find the material. I was thinking of a rigid piece in front of the radiator and a flexible from that to the compressor and to the condenser. The other flex line to the pipe in front of the radiator to the other side. Tthe right side will have one flex to the evaporator and the other from the pipe to the accumulator. I think that I have it correct.
One more thing. I have the original larger compressor I think it is the A-6. Can I purchase connectors for that compressor. If so again where.
Thanks for any ideas
Earl
