Relocating things in the engine bay

Recommended Posts

Hey guys.

 

My car has just been painted including the engine bay.

 

I want to see what parts without making to much work, I can move/ hide or remove..

 

First off. Can the charcoal canister be removed? What issues can this cause? What to do with its vaccum hoses?

 

Fuse box? Can it be moved?

 

Engine loom? Can it be tucked inside the fenders? Battery? What's involved in putting it in boot? Do you just run a 4 gauge or 0 gauge cable back into the bay?

 

Any help appreciated.

Fuse box can be moved, but you will need to buy a lot of correct gauge cables to be able to extend it into the interior or boot.

 

I've just tucked the chassis cables under the wings, so far I've only had to extend the ABS pump cables to be able to reach the loom.

 

Last time I did a battery relocate it was quite easy, just ran large gauge wire into the back.
