Got tired of my ugly LSx... Decided to make it look a little nicer

[Mike94ZLT1]

Let's face it. While Gen III and Gen IV are some of the best engines ever made, they are also some of the ugliest.

Well, I decided to do something about that. I tore the top off my motor, and started hacking apart my wiring harness. I pulled all the tape off, and all the nasty plastic wire loom.

I put my new TPIS intake on, that I had sanded and smoothed last week, along with a 90MM LS2 throttle body. I also started doing the plumbing for my billet fuel rails that I had powder coated red to match the throttle body and katech valve covers

I then started cutting and splicing things where I wanted them to go, and splicing in some LS2 wiring bits as well, since I think adapters are ugly.

Working on some more of the plumbing:

I then started wrapping all the wires in this split braid flex loom stuff I got from Jeg's. I also put my Katech valve covers on, and relocated my EVAP system to clean things up.

Thats all for now. I still need to tie things up a little neater, I have a new breather for the passenger side cover, and I need to clean and detail the rest of the engine bay.

Thanks to everyone who has helped! Mike / 347 Convert / C&S powdercoating for coating my junk, and Dr. Phil / Intmd8 for tuning it AGAIN!

Thanks for the kind words guys! I will try to get some better pics, those were all taken with my camera phone. I redid most of the wiring harness again after looking at these pics, I saw places where the loom was twisted or not laying right and I fixed it.

Looks awesome. I'm kinda anal about wiring also. You can get that split loom stuff and anything else you'll ever need to wire a car at Terminal Supply in Troy. They're in the same complex as Dart on thunderbird lane.

I need to dig into my wiring harness one of these days. where did you remount the coils? I thought the katech kit moved them up over the intake

BTW, pics of the car? The hood looks interesting and I think I will like that color scheme on an FRC.
