Evap/expansion/carbon canister question

Good morning gentleman.. 88 3.2 carerra well on way to track car..

quick Q i could not find an answer to on search:

i recently put in a FS fuel cell with all the fixins and also got rid of airbox /stock air filter setup.

can i simply delete all the plumbing and canisters for: left front wheel well expansion chamber, and the right rear wheel well canister? i have already removed the yellow carbon canister originally on top of fuel tank.

i rea all of the canister delete threads bur they seem to only describe much earlier models/setups, and do not take into acct the fuel cell (which has its own vent and check valve but no evap/recovery system )

also there is some plumbing, smal hose going to what looks like an idle vac valve mounted to the right rear upper engine wall. can this be deleted.

i spent weekend extracting all ac and heat componoents including the engine mounted heater blower , autpilot servo etc..etc..

makes a huge difference in the orderliness of the engine compartment and ability to work on things

thanks very much!!

You can simply remove all that stuff.

However as the fuel cell vents it may stink up your garage.

Also, depending on the design of the vent you may get raw fuel weeping out due to cornering loads etc.

If you remove, keep the parts for a couple of months in case you want to reinstall.
