removing IAC motor from coolant passage??

Fixing to install my holley 58mm t/b and I hate to but the ugly *** IAC assembly on it. I've already done the bypass mod, so the coolant passages are not needed. Is it possible to maybe dremel (cut away) the passage from the IAC motor? Looks like I could leave the 3 bolts to mount it and still be ok. I know you cant see most of it under the elbow, but you can see the ugly plugged up fittings from the pass. side easily, and this Holley is a DAMN good looking part! One more ?, Is my factory elbow gonna fit on this 58mm?? I tried to slide it on and no go, really did'nt try hard, but do I need to get a new elbow? I will be FINALLY starting up my motor today after 3 1/2 years of sleep. Cant wait to see how good Lloyds work is, and the sound Here's some pics of the assembly

If you really have to cut something, just cut the coolant fittings off.

The coolant passage pipes should be able to be pulled out of the housing. You'll need the IAC, though.
