Clearing out my engine bay what is what?

[vinniepearl]

Hello,
I want to remove more out of my engine bay and need to know what I I can get rid of.

I've removed my a/c, smog pump, egr, abs.

I'm wondering if they sell a manual steering rack, and are these cars hard to drive w/o power steering?. It's going to be a track car but I'd like to drive it on the street as well.

Also my brake booster in which my master cylinder is connected to I believe?. What's a good way to remove this?

I want to relocate my battery, and the fuse box.

There is also a cable coming out of my firewall on the drivers side. I'm guessing this is my speedo cable? I think I'm going to remove this as well and use my quarterhorse with binary editor for a speedometer.

I recently put a turbo kit in my car and frankly I'm tired of not having room when installing my turbo manifolds. Taking them off and putting them on is taking entirely way to long due to lack of space.

I'm also getting rid of my cobra intake and looking for a edelbrock vic jr lower intake and intake elbow if anyone has one to trade.

There is a unit on the drivers side up by the fire wall above the wheel well that is round and has wires coming off of it. What is this? I'll take a look at my wiring diagrams tonight but if you know what it is please post.

The cable coming out of your fire wall is your CLUTCH cable. Kind of a requirement. Check out my build thread in the BUILD UPS AND PROJECTS section of this forum for a cheap manual rack alternative to paying almost 700 bucks. As for a wire tuck, just unhook everything and run it all through the fenders. IT can be done rather easily with minimal harness modification. Just take your time with it.

Ah yea that would make sense. I'm retarded. I've been following your build for a while and it inspired me to strip my car down. Removing the dash is a pain in the ass though.

yes, the dash is a mofo
