I'm trying to clean up the engine compartment. The two heater hoses cross over as they connect to the heater-core in the firewall. I would like to swap the two hoses so that they will have a straight run instead of crossing. Will swapping the inlet and outlet lines have any effect on the heating/AC system or anything else for that matter?
Thanks in advance.
Ford was very specific about routing, so that air and debris would not become trapped in the heater core.

well thats stupid....heater hoses are BOSS MAN...espicially if they are the braided steel ones that look like they are chrome
Fuel delivery, heater, PCV, and all vacuum lines are all braided SS.
I did the swap at the firewall (heater core) including the vacuum operated inlet valve. Works great and looks much cleaner. There is a slight difference between the size of the inlet and outlet tubing but some bunting around the smaller of the two fixed that. Using 3/4" braided hose for both runs.
when I figure out how to post a pic of the engine compartment, I will.
