LS Swappers,... Show us your hiding spots!!

I'm calling out to all who have gone the extra mile to get that "cleaner than factory" look. I'm talking about clean installs- hiding wiring, computers, etc. for that super clean look under the hood. Where/how did you hide everything? Show us!!
Thanks!

Do you have any detail pictures of how you ran your plug wires and what you held them in place with?

They're just generic cast aluminum wire looms. There are more pictures here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=668385

Yeah, that's more like the poster child of how to do it. Very nice.

Dayj1 & Darrell, those are both beautiful installs, but we want to see what we don't see! How/where did you hide your wiring, computers, fuse box, etc. I'm talking about all the stuff that is necessary but you don't really want to look at it! Where is it?
Thanks

Wow, I guess everyone wants their hiding places to remain hidden!

Re: LS Swappers,... Show us your hiding spots!!

Phil: I'll have to take a couple of pictures for you. I'll look thru my files and see if I have one, however the truck is at the paint shop at the moment. I'm really anxious as it's supposed to be home before Christmas!! If I can't find one, I'll snap a couple and post for you. The grommet came with the EFI harness. I simply measured it with a pair of calipers and used a cheap hole saw I got in a set from Harbor Freight that was the closest size. Was actually pretty simple. On the other wires, all the holes are factory and I used reproduction grommets from LMC I think is where I got them. Either that or Southern Kentucky Classics, they are only about 35 miles from the house and I get a lot of little stuff from them.
