well after about two years of putting it off, lol. im going to be tackling the wire tuck on my engine. i have my new valve covers all PC'd up and i want to do a tuck before i get put them on. this wont really be a how to. but more of a documented journey, lol.

Unfotunately, we dont own older hondas and ours cars have a massive amount of wires, looms, and vacumm hoses all over the place.

Im going to be focusing mostly on the actual engine. and lightly on the rest by making it look good.

so, i'll start with a picture of how it sits now. old VC's and engine cover removed for this pic.

BEFORE: (3-21-11)

UPDATE: (3-22-11)

Ok, so i pretty much have the intake manifold off and all the factory wiring harness for the engine removed from the coverings, components, and brackets. i have the rear cam sensor wires and rear bank o2 sensors wiring to undo from everything holding them. this stuff....the looms and such. is brittle as s***. its basically all just crumbling up and falling apart as i put any pressure on it. Hell, even if i wasnt doing a wire tuck, im thinking now it would have been just as good to remove all the old stuff and re-insulate everything all nice and proper. the stuff crumbles up so bad, im going to have to Shop Vac my engine bay out, lol

Glad i decided to cover up the intake ports with the way this stuff was falling apart...

And also found a screwed up Upper IM seal. so i'll be putting new ones on upon installation.

UPDATE: (3-24-11)

officially finished un-raveling everything. did an inspection briefly to see if any wires and such were frayed or damaged. they all look good. Removed my Prosport gauges wiring as well because im going to be installing the new setup while i do the tuck so its all done at once.

lol, area where a animal had made a nest last year. finally got all of it out of there this time. SHOP VAC FTW!!

Also decided to check out my valves while i was in there. Gotta love meth injection. Look how clean they are.

Going to start rerouting everything tomorrow. gonna pick up some heat reflective stuff also.

Thanks man. Last night i started routing everything to where i wanted it. Im only doing about 2 hours worth of work on it a day. So thats why its taking so long. Hoping to have at least the engine harness wire tuck part of this fiasco finished by the end of the weekend. And my new Evo gauges setup shortly after. Should look really good. I have a new set of powdercoated valve cover i need to swap on bt that will wait until i finish the rest of the engine bay stuff im getting powdercoated.
