I mean, I do not see how you guys tuck wires so good with a turbo setup. I have damn wires everywhere, and they all need to be there.
Love it!
I looked all over and could not find a class on how to wire tuck
Tell me about it, geez.
And the engine runs? Even more impressed, judging by the pictures I figured you needed more WIRES lol. Like, where are vacume lines, wiring harness lines, etc?

its all a thing of perspective. hide wiring under stuff like the intake manifold, run wires extremely close to things. as for vacuum lines, what lines are needed, he has no brake booster, so that whole line is gone, everything ran off the throttle body can be ran under the intake manifold. things like the egr is gone, i assume evap as well, power steering is not up by the cam so none of those lines are there. there is no reason for wiring to be exposed on anyones car
its all simple things to hide the wiring and this is a case where it looks amazing. also with the correct 2.3 manifold, or access to a welder, you can locate vacuum lines on the back side or underneath the manifold.
as stated before about pet peeves, my pet peeves are the threaded bolts on the cam tower, the rear hoist mount on the cam, i assume that was used just to drop the motor in and not mess a nice one up, and the white zip ties, again i do not believe these to be the finished product because they are not snipped yet. one thing about this bay and my own that i hate, the throttle cable, i want to shorten it and run it along the cam towers or locate it lower on the firewall and run up underneath the trans to the throttle body.
awesome bay tho, i said it earlier too but its damn good work.
Ahh I see what your sayin Gary. Craziness. If I haven't been through the ringer with this car I would attempt this.
Ah well.
Love it Syl!

the rear hoist mount will be replaced with a nice cover in aluminum
the white zip ties was there only for a mock up

^^ yup that was exactly what i was thinking, you do some very amazing work, keep it up bud.
Very, very nice work. That is a work of art

Bay of the year for sure. Fetter's gonna have to pull some crazy ish to compete!
McMoney, I too would like more as much info as you can give (possibly with pictures?) On what parts/procedure was put into the brake booster delete.
lol you guys...im nit-picky too but god, let the man get it 100% complete!
what nobody yet mentioned are the msd wires. needs some kind of cover or maybe they need shortened... idk. something.
The master cylinder is 1" bore maybe to big, I will change for 7/8" bore if the brake pedal is too hard to push
I have to change the brake pedal ratio
Stock is 3.5:1 I think, now I have 6:1
and the adaptor plate that I made
Location: Montreal, Quebec
You should make a walkthrough for people (like myself) that have no bloody clue about our brake systems, or how to replace them. I admit, this is one area I'm pretty useless in as far as proportioning and ratios go.
