the VRIS actuators literally were resting against that lip on the firewall, so the aspire engine bay has got to be much bigger

sounds like your engine sits higher than mine too, mine tucks nicely under the lip, and I folded mine up against the firewall. It just took a few good hits with a dead blow hammer.89 Festiva L Carby 4 Speed... RIP. Evicted and Scrapped. I HATE MY FAMILY

Actually yes, i've gone through the second harness and i'm just about done with it
today i started by stripping the interior out to re-wire a few things, i've decided to go ahead with a wire-tuck now, it may not be a perfect tuck, but hey it's my first attempt at one :lol:
Here's how the car looks right now..... kind of a sad sight but i'm just thinking of the finished product
A nice bare engine bay
The festiva wiring that will be re-used
And the back of the engine where i ran the first harness i trimmed down
Next step is to bolt the engine in place, then run the wires where i want them so i can do whatever i need to do to keep the harness hiddenLast edited by Damkid; 03-05-2010, 10:06 PM.

1988 323 GT - B6T Powered

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
