Hey Opal, we all know you are the master in cleaning engine bays, do you think you have the time to explain some tips or showing us where to start to do this process?

As soon as I get my 67 back on the road, I'm planning on tearing into my 95 a little and doing a minor tuck. I hate how busy our bays are stock.

Tony --

I was able to clean up quite a bit of wiring by doing a few things..

1. Coil-on-plug conversion

Was really easy to do actually. Thought it was going to be a *****.. had to do it for the blower swap!

All the shit that left!

2. EGR delete

Super cheap. Get a block off plate for nothing, and then there is a pipe cap you can buy at Lowes for the manifold.

MORE SHIT GONE!

Being that I'm short on cash this year heading into winter, I may make an attempt at cleaning up the wiring and such under the hood.

to delete the egr, you need a block off plate(free with a little piece of scrap metal) and either a cap for on the exhaust manifold or I have heard of people taking the piece off of the egr tube that screws on to the manifold and just sticking a penny in between with a little rtv. The only part of this that costs any money is turning off your check engine light afterwards(tuner).

It does but it is looking like it is going to be an early cold winter up here this year so what the hell. I figured I would do the cop conversion, make sure the car still runs correctly, then move on to other stuff. I don't think I will be moving the fuse box in to the inner fender but who knows, winter makes people do crazy things, lol.
