cleaning up the engine bay
i was thinking about cleaning up the bay a bit today. im gona ditch the washer fluid tank. get the smaller ls1 booster. and id like to hide the coolant overflow tank.. but where can i put it? i think i have heard of people using the ls1 coolant overflow since it hides it under the battery. but have any of you?

I don't think I've seen anyone on here do that. I like the idea of replacing the stock tank though, they're huge and look like crap when they age. Jegs has tons of universal ones (http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...10127_-1_10109), but I don't see any that you could hide under the battery. Personally I dont really like the idea of getting rid of the washer fluid tank, but I don't know how much you would use it anyways. In the Ohio winters, I use the washer fluid/de icer all the time.

I'm trying to remember which of the many vehicles I dismantled that had a w/w res. going into the fender apron. I think it was either the 84 mustang or the 87. It was kinda skinny and only the fill cap came up through the inner fender.

well this is gona be a nice days only car. so ill NEVER use that thing anymore. If it were up to me, i would go carb. ditch the AC and heater blend in a nice cover for all that. go to a manual steering and get rid of anything that isnt necessary under that hood. im even thinking about moving the battery to the back.. lol

What do you mean if it were up to you? Its your car, lol. I say go carb, ditch the AC (heat is always a good thing to have), then keep power steering and brakes. Basically what I did. Actually, thats exactly what I did, lol.
