Default New civic, need some advice.

ok well i just bought a 92 civic CX, the body is pretty good, but the motor was torn out (guy didnt know how to put it back together) he was the only owner and i bought it for 400 dollars, with 2 d series motors that he had.
Im goin got make this into a fast street car, i want to pull everything out besides the radio, seat, stripped dash, and a motor. I got most of the stuff out and cleaned it up pretty good.
The only questions i have.. the car has a hydrolic tranny, i can see the lines coming of the brake booster and see the hard lines on the firewall. i would like to get rid of most of the un-nessecary clutter, is ther anyway i can get rid of some of those or convert them to a simplilar setup.
I should be putting in a b18c5, with itbs, and other all motor stuff, does anyone have a setup like this?
Ill be adding questions to this post as i move along in this project. thanks.

maybe I'm confused, but you want to clean up the hydrolic line clutter? If so, how else would you do it?

damn, a 92 cx already weighs 2088 lbs. i'd just strip out the interior and a lot of unnecessary crap and call it a day. i don't even think it's possible to hide all the brake lines on the firewall.

yea i know. all the interior is already out. im about to take the blower motors, and the ac crap out of the dash. but in the engine bay, i want to make it as uncluttered as possible, im moving the fuse box to the glove box, the battery to the back, and i would like to tuck the harness in the firewell.
i have also been doing some research, and im going to get the endyn catch can set up. the only thing i cant really figure out, is what i can do about the pcv system, i thought i saw a thread about it, and they replaced it with a catch can as well ( and i think they drilled some holes in the front of the valve cover and tapped it). this is not a daily driver, just a fast weekend car. any comments or anything that you think i should do would be helpful

well you can extend all your engine harness wires and hide them underneath the fenders. looks super clean .
