Looking great!!! How much work was it to move the ABS to below the headlight?

You need to do a wiring tuck to take this from magnificent to legendary.

 

[VectorPat]

^^ I think the tuck was about 2 years or 2 motors ago,

I want to do this SOOO bad.. and a tuck. Not just the 13 conversion.. but prep and paint the engine bay. Mine does not look bad and better than most, but a few scratches here and there that I see cause I know it is not perfect. I followed the 1badhrse thread... some day I suppose

I agree.. go all the way and tuck that harness

Paint looks great in the engine compartment Paul!

Updated post 3...

Moved ABS unit to under the headlight to get rid of the spaghetti under the hood. Prime red the engine bay.

Awesome, do I need anything special to do this?

 

[one eyed willy]

Headlight wiring all finished!

ABS unit install finished!

All wiring back in place to the front of the car!

From 07 wiring to 13 wiring....is very different.

So as I and a number of others have asked... what all is involved in moving the ABS behind the bumper?

I used the stock bracket, rebent it and welded it to the frame. Reused all the stock lines , using a vice and brake line bender to make them straight and resend them. Most of the lines barely reached and took some trial and error to make them all reach. Wasn't hard, was very time consuming , and that's with the motor and everything else already out of my way.

 

[Wicked GT]

Thanks! I can imagine it really cleaned up the area by the air cleaner... may have to look in to this, thanks!

So what is the Line Lock Solenoid used for? LOL! Road Race Cars don't need that!

Just kidding. As usual car is looking amazing!
