Need to lose the junk

I want to clean up under the hood by removing all unnecessary accessories. Any and all ideas would be great, also does anyone know how i can remove those air tubes from the factory headers? If thats what they are called. I have a 86 305 TPI. I just want the bare essentials.

There are MANY threads in here with pictures (some have pictures) that let you know what you can do to clean up the bay and what to do to get rid of those tubes.

Do a search for engine bay clean up or removing emissions
