of course missing the intercooler pipe, but i just re-installed my transmission for the second time recently, and still have to button that all up.

Make a bracket to relocate the fuse box to the firewall out of sheet metal. That would help hide some more wiring for relatively cheap. But its coming along nicely.

i actually had the fuse box out with intentions of moving it.. again. but the wires for all the lights and shit just doesn't give me enough room to move it up there. and im not sure if i want to start cutting and soldering , that is alot of wiring.

but that damn thing is so ugly.

 

[compression]

it double posted me? good game automerge haha.

i had the fuse box mounted under the headlight'ish but it looked worse in my opinion.

 

[grim reefer]

looks pretty clean to me

 

[volcomsnow245]

Looks really Good. I still need to finish my wire tuck.

 

[tkrPerformance]

good start. I would move the fuse box also.

I put mine in the car. it was not that many wires I need to extend.

 

[compression]

how do yo mean? dont you have to extend that large roll of wires heading to the lights and alternator?

I would suggest getting a cam gear cover so you don't jack up the belt and then need to rebuild the head.

Zaklee makes a clear cover by the way.

This is the epic truth. I have friends swear up and down they never had an issue and blah blah...

I personally had a rag get sucked into the cam gears during start up. It was enough to bend and break numerous valves instantly. It also shattered some of the rollers in the process.

They look way cooler when they aren't destroying your engine.

Hey Compression, can you take a straight-on shot of your IC and bumper? I want to see what it looks like looking at it head on at that level.
