LT1 Engine Bay Prep


Recommended Posts

I have my whole engine bay completely stripped of everything. I removed the complete front end, steering, brake and clutch master cylinders, etc. My question is, what else should I remove and what holes can I fill in?

Since I can use the existing hood latch, I think I will leave that. The wire holders (circled in blue) should I remove all of them? There are a bunch of them on top of the right frame rail . Should I remove all the brake and fuel line holders (circled in red, again a bunch on the right frame rail)? I assume I should remove the pivot arm for the accelerator linkage (circled in purple)? What holes do I need to keep on the fender well (The one circled in green was for the coil)?

 

I am going to paint the engine bay the same color as the exterior of the car and I want it to be as clean (uncluttered) as possible.

I would remove all the holders for the wiring on the frame rail. I ended up runing my harness differently and did not use these. I would leave the brake line mounting points and reuse to hold the brake lines and maybe the fuel lines. Just depends on how you route the fuel lines. Also remove the stock pivot mount for the throttle linkage. JMHO
