Hey guys,
So I decided to start tucking my engine bay. I didn't expect to go as far as I am now, but once I started hiding things, I wanted to hide more & more stuff. I'm not going to the extreme like coomer did, just wanted to clean up the motor a bit. Engine before I started the tuck, it was neat, but I wanted to venture further. ![]() I started with the passenger side, because its the easiest. ![]() I had to remove the fenders, front bumper, and eventually the hood. I will get better pics tomorrow, my camera ran out of battery. Here is a blurry cellphone pic of the frame rail tucked. ![]() I'm happy with the results, then the wiring to the alt and O2 sensor started to annoy me. lol So I jumped in on the drivers side Here is some of the tuck and the relocated fuse box ![]() I can't believe how time consuming this is. I have the engine harness out of the car now, I will rewire the entire harness so I can completely hide it. Blurry pic warning, its getting there. ![]() I still have a ton of work to do on it, consider that the almost half way point, still plenty of things to hide and relocate. I have a feeling I'm gonna pull the engine ![]() I will get some better pics tomorrow. Any suggestions ? DEF -------------------- ![]() I will return one day. |

Hey bro - one thing I do see - stretching the throttle cable that high will cause the car to redline 3 secs after you start it. Ask me how I know ![]() The throttle cable has been routed that way for 3 years with no problem. I'd like a different cable though, something I could hide. If anyone has any ideas let me know. Hey def, this is gonna look great when its done, however the only problem i see with it is, if you ever DO happen to blow a fuse, its going to be the biggest PITA to change out. i mean, other then that theres really no draw backs, and i dont see how you would be able to extend it a little further for it to be out of the way yet still accessable. keep this updated though, im really curious to see how it will turn out. looking good so far though man. It would be nice to move it else where but I have nowhere else to hide it. The fender seems like the only place to put it. I agree blowing a fuse will suck, changing a fuse will just take a little longer. Need a hand here, I'm doing the wiring in my kitchen 2 hrs away from the car. Which plug is for the altonator? and what is the other one for ? AC? ![]() Thanks guys -------------------- ![]() I will return one day. |
