Added info:::

The firewall has added collars made from plastic sign boards which I cut to fit the firewall. This adds to the appearance and covers up the holes in the firewall from the EPS Harness and coolant line. A simple mod but makes it look more presentable.

ALL,

Let me know if these Mods have influenced you to (maybe) do one of the mods.

Did you just block off the coolant lines? I noticed you relocated the vacuum lines but I remember there are coolant lines that go from the head to the intake manifold that went through those tubes. I think I see one of the ports blocked in the pic

240,

I have installed the Hondata IM gasket that eliminates the coolant port going to the TB. Is this what you are referring to? Also, the vacuum lines are from the IM to the vacuum pump (chamber) which in one of the pics I show the vacuum chamber relocated under the cowel.

Ah, the w/ the Hondata gasket yeah you wouldn't need the coolant lines.

I was talking about the lines that was between the throttle body and head. On the stock motor there are a handful of vacuum and coolant lines there. I saw you relocated the vacuum lines and the coolant outlet looked like it was capped.

What MOS were you? I was a E5 in the Chemical Corp a few years back before I got out.

240,

Retired E-8 (63B series): Retired in 96 with 24 years, then Arab countries for 9.5 years. Once you block off the IM with the gasket, you can block the TB inlet and outlet ports (not needed).

looks good. I have a few ideas that are simple to do that you could do.


you can tuck the injector wires under the fuel rail to hide those



i moved the cruise control to the front cross member, 5min and no extending wires
