Look through this thread, it might help you out some.

BTW, doing a wiretuck just take some common sense and creativity. But I completely understand you having questions, I did too when I did mine. Just read that thread and you should get some of your confusions cleared up.

Do you mean tucking the engine harness?? If so, I think it plays a huge part in the look of a clean engine bay. You dont have to completely reloom it tho.

Before I redid my harness (unlooming, tucking, then relooming), I was able to pass wires through different places to hide them a little. It just takes some creativity. Look for things that are a sore to the eye and FIND a way to hide it.

Good luck!
