Yay?

I mean, this looks great and everything, but what's the point? Wire tucks clean up engine bays.

Maybe this can be moved to the picture thread?

i too thought the engine is in crooked.

that is one thing I dont understand, people take the time and do a clean *** tuck, then they dont even touch anythign else, stuff stays greasy, paint chipped, etc. A purple valve cover is one thing, a flaking purple one is another and not much to show off. isnt the whole reason of a wire tuck to show off under your hood. it certainly doesnt make anythign easier to diagnose electical problems and access them.

Woah hold on people......For one thing this thread was dead so who brought it back? Second is that VC was changed right away to a powdercoated white one...This thread was just me being proud of the wire tucked results! Third, the motor mounts were some cheap ones that came on the car when I bought it and forced it to sit at a slant...I bought some Hasports but I sold the car before I could put them on...


SO NO ONE ELSE BUMP THIS THREAD PLEASE LOCK IT!!

PS. The car had yellow Works on it so the hoses matched, and it did not look out of place. And stop complaining about the temp. VC.
