Default Finally done..

Did a lot of work cleaning up the engine bay(whole car actually) this winter.. Finally done.. Catch can was just added, going to shorten the hose coming out the pass side.. Rewired the nitrous, hard line nitrous, moved all my switches to the ashtray, gauges in A/C vents, battery relocated to spare tire area, shortened shifter, etc.. Busy winter, end results were worth it for me! Here's some pics..(don't mind the 16.3 AFR, car was not running when I took the pic)
