89 Mirage, some more clean up and weight reduction.

[wibblersnatch]

Well I got some more clean up done in the engine bay today. Pulled the rack and sway bar too. I think I'm done cleaning the engine bay finally. I am going to go over it with a scuff pad and some primer maybe this weekend. We agreed on just painting the bay black. It will help whats under the hood look uninteresting as it will have a black valve cover, intake manifold, and intercooler pipes. We also took the dash out and took ever piece of ducting that we could out, as well as take the frame off the hood too. Anyways, here's some pics!

Thought I'd throw in an old one just for comparison.

I forgot to get a picture, but since this I scraped the glue spots off and scrubbed the hood.

We dropped 5 pounds just from that!

Here's some of the stuff we pulled outta the dash, minus the carpet, battery tray, and master cylinder of course.

Here is what the dash looks like right before we installed it. Nice and empty!

That's it for now, thanks for looking!

Looking good, just for reference the "bracing" under the hood was not attached fully to the hood when we got it. We have ideas on how to rebrace it if need be.

That looks like a lot of work, but you seem to be doing a good job. What sort of setup is going in this? (may have missed it, I don't pay much attention )

Pretty much stock. A big 16g, 550 injectors, 2g mas, fmic, maybe an exhuast of legal stature

Don't forget the 272's!
