You could get some stainless LT's and ditch the air system. That will help with black hose's runing around the intake and the rusted exhaust mainifolds. Also I never used my a/c so I took every thing out made alot more room to work on the pass side and looks alot less cluttered in the engine bay.

Do the same for the EGR system. Maybe this will give you some ideas.

spray a crap load of WD 40 or 1/4 bottle of armour all in the engine bay before you wash your car, after you dry your car open the hood and smile
