Did you covered the original hose or did you change it?

I imagine doing this would void all warranty and what about electrical issues down the road? I'm an electronics guy but I don't see any advantage to this type of work except maybe for weight distribution with the battery....am I missing something?

I admit some truly work of art engine bays in this thread! Keep them coming

I don't think there is any "purpose" besides aesthetics. This is the first time I have done anything like this. My car was down for almost 2 months anyway, so I figured I might as well try doing a tuck. Yes it could be a b*tch if there are any electrical issues down the road. For me, I only put about 3-4K miles on the car a year and I enter a few shows throughout the summer so I figured it was worth the effort.

Scott-
