Removing Air Conditioning??

Does anyone know where I could find a write up on how to completly remove my A/C? It was already half removed, the compressor is missing and a few lines are just dangling around my engine bay...

Thanks,
M

The timing belt blew on the old motor and the previous owner decided to get a 2.3 instead... I have no idea why it's a 2.3 but I ain't complaining...it's only got like 60K kms on it. The one thing that pisses me off is that the donor car he took the 2.3 from probably didn't have A/C probably a 98 Accord Base model,... Half has already been removed I'm just wondering if anyone has tips on how to safely remove the rest of it... and yes,.. swapping an f22 for f23 is the gayest motor swap ever,.. hahaha

If you're gonna remove the a/c for good, don't forget to remove the evaporator behind the dash. A lot of people don't know it's there when removing their a/c for weight savings and it's actually one of the heavier parts of the system. You have to take out the dash to do this and rig up something in its place so your heater and defrost still work.
