Engine bay aesthetics

Toolmanmike: I noticed that your refrigerant piping does not have the inlet and outlet mufflers on the A/C compressor. Does that make any difference? What's in those mufflers anyway? If someone uses the original mufflers, does the internal stuff need to be rebuilt?

BTW, your engine compartment looks great.
Interesting you mentioned that. I have never really noticed it before. Mine was Chrysler Airtemp but dealer installed. It has the knee knocker unit that hangs under the dash.
