I'll take some pictures for you. I'm currently doing a tuck on a delsol right now. I'll see where the lines can be routed to.

Dude I really didn't look at no1 else's tuck. I just started doing it on my own. I've worked for honda for 3years and I've pulled a bunch of dashes out while I was there. Did a bunch of wiring back in the days also. I'm currently building engines and cars for people on the side as a hobby.

I have removed it from my OBD1 converted B series.

Pros
Bay looks cleaner
car runs just fine

Cons
Bad for the enviroment
Harder to pass emissions test

I MIGHT post some pics later.

no check engine light? from what ive read its not even used on obd1. also read you need to route the lines down and out of your engine bay to avoid fumes in the cabin. pics?

No engine light from the removal.

Only line you have to worry about fumes is right inline with the driver. Its where the fuel lines run into the engine bay. There is a return line for fumes. I just turned it to face under the car. I have never had the smell of gas on my car.
