I like a cleaned up bay, not tucked, shaved all you see is block, and nothing else. it just looks like you're trying to hard.

I'm not doing it for anyone but myself=) lol Unused bracket and holes, knots of wires and hoses. That is all nasty looking clutter to me.

Like I said, cleaned up, not bare

It isn't bare=P There is a phat motor still in the middle. It's just simplified.

simplified? You're high. Tucking and shaving a bay is a pain in the asshole. have fun stretching your wires! That is the worst.

None of mine need to be extended. lol The biggest pain is removing the seam sealer for me. The rest is simple. Simplified my friend. No extra hoses, wires, or tanks in my way=)

My engine bay. No work of art, but no hidden wires to dick around with. I dig it.

Looks nice and simple. Not too crazy. Is that a KaMotors intake? I have one. My screws fell out and rusted so I had to swap them for stainless hardware.

Yeah, its a Kamotors intake. I like Kamotors, he is a nice guy, but the car gains quite a bit of performance without that filter on it. I am going with an ITG filter + heatshield when I get my megasquirt setup.

Snap, engine bay looks great!

[YoungCR]

Agreed! Thats probably as far as I would ever go on cleaning up an engine bay, looks simple as is.

Man you guys are going to hate my engine bay. It is the opposite of cleaned up. And its only going to get worse when I get my 2nd alternator in.

My bmw is cleaner
