The current EL motor. I've got a replacement brake booster and master cylinder off Kev too so once I get around to it, they should look a lot nicer

How do you go about hiding the loom in E-Series dude? EB for example?

Thanks, James

huggiebear · Post by **huggiebear** » May 8th, 2010, 1:23 pm

its no longer running the NC loom, everything is converted to EF including dash. from what i can work out is for the EA-ED you need to cut and lengthen the loom to hide it all

Epic throttle cable!!

Bay looks good though!!

Dansedgli · Post by **Dansedgli** » October 3rd, 2010, 10:19 am

Has to be done

The only way to fix it would be to make it longer and hide it behind the rad or change to an ED throttle body so the cable can pull from behind. I reckon the cable would still run over the turbo and melt though.

Plus compared to the outside of this shitbox the engine bay could have 40 foot of cable and still look impressive.

The engine bay is like a semi attractive girl and the body is her fat friend.

think whats his saying is the head that has the half moon piece and your rocker cover is flat over that section
when you could of bought a later model rocker cover that would of suited the head
love the shine though
