Cleaned the engine bay a little bit

**allbaugh_04** · 05-31-2008, 12:29 PM

It's nothing too special but it looks a lot better than it once did. I think I need to adjust the right FRC from the looks of it...not quite on there. It's hard with those two fuel lines. If i could get them to bend i could just put them through that slot on the FRC but they don't like to bend at all and it's a fuel line, so i don't like screwing with it at all. I guess it'll do for now.

Here's the whole car if you haven't seen it yet. I only got this pic cuz i accidently deleted the rest and this is one of the few that made it to photobucket before the mistake...owell.

The fbody FRCs have slots in them for the fuel lines. Click on my profile and you can see what I mean in my engine bay pic. Thats why the driver side is not seating perfectly.

Looks good otherwise

Very nice. Makes me realize how dirty mine is.

It was really easy, take a half hour and do it.

I can't get em to fit in that slot though...i'll have to take it off and look at it again. I know your have the 2 slots...i'll figure it out.

First mistake, ..., Did you purchase the single slot covers because you didn't know any better?, ...
The 97-98 two slot covers are a better fit for the f-body application.

Eh, I figured they were all the same, i'll get them to work somehow.

Do you happen to know a kid named steele, drives an ss truck with a 572 in it?

No, I don't
But if ya want the covers pre-cut, send me a note, I can set ya up.

I'm not aware of cd2. I just used some paint from a can at autozone i think. Can't even think of the name of it's, that namebrand stuff. I'm not at home, but it was pretty damn simple I'm not gonna lie. I didn't like the red corvette letters sticking out...y2k started me on the pewter and black theme and I think it's working out rather nicely. Thx for the comments guys. I think I might try to paint the calipers black. I don't want anything to stand out too much, I need a different battery too and just other small things, it's coming together slowly. I got other things in mind as well, whistler mod, maybe polish that TB up a little, remove the side molding...

Dude, it was so simple, everyone need to clean their engine. I don't know how long the dust will stay off, but it looks really nice and it only took a few minutes literally.

Thx for the comments.
