no AC in miami, fl please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello, so this morning i installed new header! and holy ****! did it make a difference.
not only is it louder but its also alot faster.!

in any case that the good news the bad new is... now my AC does not work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my guess is while i was sliping in the header i hit an AC line or something...
of course i had no time to check b/c i had to come to work!

also after putting in the header the center exhaust hanger does fit anymore but this is the smallest of all worries!

i need some ideas on the AC please!

is there any AC tubing in the area where the header goes i could of hit? i hope it is that simple! a tube is the easiest i can get i hope thats it!

but please ideas!

note: it blows as stong as any day.

Do u hear the compressor kicking in? You might have knocked off the electrical connection for the compressor... Check that first.....

There is no vulnerable tubing that I know of in that area. The lines run along the left-side frame rail then under the air filter housing to the firewall. Unless you hung the header flange up in the area under the housing and above the transmission and really forced things, I dont see how you could have damaged anything.
