Default engine bay clean up started

so i am in the process of pulling my motor, and while it is out i plan on doing a few things. no one can argue against me when i say that ls1 f-body engine bays look like straight butt so i am going to clean it up some. i am doing the passenger fender wire mod, and a homemade coil relocation to under the cowl, and i am going to polish my valve covers. the other thing i am going to do is move the fuse boxes further down and move my tcs delete block too. i already moved the battery in the hatch, removed the tcs, and ditched the coolant overflow for a smaller over flow can. i'm hoping to have it all done by the end of september. post up if you have any advice or i'm just going to kind of wing it.

Do the wire mod to the hood cable on the driver's side and re-route the grounds.

Be sure to post some pics up when you're done. I'll probably end up doing the wire mod one day. Do you have a smooth bellows? If not, it doesn't look as cheap as the stock rubber accordion style.
