1G engine bay almost button up!

[Spector5]

Went through an tried to clean the wiring up the best I could.

Given my living conditions and strict apartment policy against working on vehicles. Plus the car has to be gone due to no plates(found a different storage place).

With about a couple days of pretty much undoing and then being forced to throw the car back together. I tried to redo a lot of the wiring(all new grounds and power wires), attempted to put a bandaid on the CAS wiring, but it did not work. I will have to man up and just buy the pigtail for it.

Once I can get a more reliable work space for the car. The harness will come completely out and get all new wiring(it's all brittle and breaks even if you sneeze). Plus, I'm not a big fan of how the factory routed the harness even where it comes out of the fire wall.

Not happy with how the harness turned out going over the intake manifold, but definitely something I'm changing with actual time. However, it's good enough for now to move the car.

Here's a before (date I purchased the car).

And a up to dated picture.

Let me know and please offer feedback

It has cleaned up nicely. Good job. You probably already know about http://connectors.sheridanengineering.com/index.htm

Thank you!

Yes, I know of the website. I'm waiting to buy the entire engine harness connector kit from them when I'm able to build my harness from scratch .

Any pointers or suggestions on what to tweak other than the battery being relocated and deleting the abs would be great! I will be doing those two things in due time.

Only advice I can see right now is a heat shield or coat your exhaust manifold, get the two shorter bolts for your oil pan because they are cutting your timing belt and will recently snap the thing, and get the top cover for your timing belt. Get a clear one if you want to see your belt/gears, but get one.

I dont see many running a top timing cover.... Good eye on the bolts cutting the belt.

Did make a big difference, around here you can get that FP mani ceramic coated for $80, would look real nice.

Its a really cool feeling taking a car from this...
