Rat nest removal/block off plate install 87 na

I did a search and could not find any write-ups. Can someone point me in the right direction?
I'm looking to remove everything possible for a nice clean look.
AC is coming out, PS is staying.


I'm tracing down some leaks and figured I would clean up the engine bay.

Its a fairly straightforward process, remove upper intake manifold, remove spider, and find the things that still need vaccum and hook those up to lines.
Remember that you are going to need to extend the fuel line from the fuel filter to the rail, since some of it passes through the spider, same for the return line.

I removed EVERYTHING. I have 3 vacuum lines on the car total. 1 for the FPR, 1 for the brake booster, and 1 for the boost sensor. No BAC, OMP, cold start assist, rats nest, nothing. Really cleans up the bay lol.

If you need any help with it hit me up
