BTW I did a search and this was the best thread I can find on the Subject
i moved the passenger side wires all under the fenderwell and welded and smoothed all the holes along with the seems that runs along thepower stearing mount area (and the same for the other side). got rid of the abs and the propotioning valve is going to be mounted under a plate along with the fuse box and mallory ignition. the fuel lines were moved and the hole was welded and smoothed as well. i also moved the harnes that runs infront of the radiator behind a piece of metal i added to the bottom of the radiator support and it was also smoothed and painted.

all the engine wires were run differently to hide them and the ones that weren't needed were cut out. no more black wire looms that stand out, just tightly wrapped wires in electrical tape that are either hidden or don't stick out as much.
