Default PFab and AC / Heater lines

I picked up one of these kits and emailed Pfab info back and forth about the application with AC and heater lines. They say the lines can be bent slightly and the heater bracket cut / bent back away, and to use heat wrap and shielding. I plan on getting AC relocation lines, whenever they become available again, but in the meantime has anybody used the PFab (or any turbo kit) with bending the AC lines and heater bracket, and can they comment on how well it worked / how safe it is?

They bend fairly easily. I would use, at minimum, heat tape around the AC lines (after you bend them out of the way)

Thanks, I'll do that. Any other general recommended precautions, heat wrap for the turbo and headers, or things of the sort?

Which PFab manifold are you going to be using? Log or tubular?
