Wanting to do a Wire Tuck
WADDAP!!!!
So I wanna wire tuck the SOHC! But I wanna keep the AC. My little bubble is my daily driver and it gets pretty hot here in the Bahamas. So how do I go about hiding the AC Hoses.
Also, I don't need to take the engine out for this, right?
Where would I relocate the fuse box to?
And what's an average time for completing a job as such?
Thanks dudes!!

Search up hondatech, some of the best guides are on there.
A bit of advice: IMO wire tucks are for show cars. How often will you be looking under your hood? A lot of wire tucks require the removal of a/c and p/s; not only to make it look clean, but imagine how much of a hassle it would be, to hide brake lines, p/s lines and a/c lines... this isn't going to take you a day or two. It might take a week or two.

Yeah well, U guys don't have to worry about me going all over the place. HCF helped me to get my car on the road, so I always check out you guys first before I go all over the place. My P/S is already out, no need for that in there. The A/C is definitely a keeper so , I may probably do just a partial wiretuck if that is possible.

Wire tucks are mostly just how creative you can get, there are a lot of good write up on HT and a simple search on google will yield many answers. Mild wire tucks are pretty easy such as hiding injector wires and vacuum hoses. Also people will drill a hole in the side of the fender and then run all the wires on the inside of the fenders and then back in to the cabin of the car or where ever they need to go. I suggest you start out with the easy stuff and see if you think its worth the time. You need to be very organized because if something goes wrong with your car and you need to get access to one of the wires or hoses it will be a pain in the @ss to figure out which wire goes where and which hose is which.
