In my quest to tidy the cluttered engine bay I have a few ideas! so could you lot cast you beady eyes over just to make sure i wont hit any problems doing the things i want?

 

I will be buying a rear engine bay cover from z-centre to hide all the nastys at the rear of the bay so....

 

1. I propose to put my power steering pot beside the brake cylinder? I will need to elongate the pipes approx 18"? ok?

 

2. Under the battery tray there is JUST, enough room to relocate the fuse box, I will need to cut and replace approx 50 wires, thats 100 solder joints!!! will i ruin any resistance in lenthing the wires??

 

3. Relocate the fuel filter beside the battery? just enough room again to fit it in! is this safe??

 

And lastly whats people thought on the chrome slam panels? love or hate, actually i feel a poll coming on

 

Thanks in advance for your help :tt2:

Daz you can keep the fuel filter almost where it is. you can squeeze it between the fuel hard pipes and the battery and the rear cover goes over it fine :cool3:

 

 

That's what I have in mind Daz,same as the Cossy bus,small inline filter fastened up the rear! (ooeerr) cleanable too!:cool3:

 

I tried a small inline filter on the zed and it detted like a pig :(

Ive got a slam panel and backpanel on order with Luke. Should be with me midweek. car mads backpanel looked very tidy.

 

Yeh, placing my order tonight, love car.mads i had to copy

can you get hold of braided fuel pipe too??

 

Just spoke to my mate, He says yes and no!!! It sounds as if we need standard fuel line and cover it with braded cover!!:thumbup1:

Thought of that Bazza, but everything fitted around that area and I need space in my small booty !! :thumbup1:

Only 9 people for the poll :bored:, slam panel is winning :w00t:

 

Sorry to dig up and old thread...

 

Car.Mad, have you moved the harness for the fuse box? I cant quite make it out in the pic.

 

I'm about to start the fun task of tidying up the bay. I quite like your idea of keeping the fuse box and PAS pot. Only if i can hide the harness though -its pretty hideous

Next question........

 

Where di you get that fan shroud?
