Also, I wanted to get an opinion on my engine bay...
Should I go with wire loom?


Or should I got without wire loom?

Maybe a different color? I know the color didnt come out too well with the pictures.

Please post any opinions good or bad!
Thanks!

i did your first custom one.....i just have a few questions.....is it sturdier than the rubber coupling....i.e does it hold it str8 up and not let it drop down?
2) is it possible to get rid of the accordian section in your next writeup?
3) and last, ummm thats it

i may try it soon, but im still trying to figure out how the MIF adapter and brass barb fitting actually fit into the pipe if you drill the hole smaller....


well thanx again for looking out for us poor peepz

also, if your talking about the yellow wire loom in the front near the AC hose...hmm looks ok ? and also, the painting of the upper piece looks really nice

1)It is much sturdier than the rubber coupling. Hard as a rock. As far as letting it drop down, I used some plumbers tape (not really tape, its a metal strip with holes in it)and made a bracket to hold it in place. Works well.

2)Yes I am looking for a Silicon reducer 3" to 2.5". If I find one thats easy to pick up at national store I will definitely post it.

The little barb fittings have a screw type thread on them, just get some pliers and twist away..

Thanks for the input
