show pics of clean tpi engine bays
Here's my Formula, i removed all the unnecesary junk i didn't need (a/c, emissions) i am going for an uncluttered engine bay. as you may have seen on the boards i removed the radiator overflow and washer fluid bottles and replaced them with a single unit that has both out of a 91 explorer.
Future plans (probably this summer) include removing the heater control valve and relocating the battery to the trunk.
