    geez frank..... thanks for that.... may be i should have mentioned that id rather have a safe car before looks of the engine bay.... i didnt know if he took them off or not but the handling of the car would have been crap if he drove it that way.... ntm i have a friend who didn't have them and his towers were hitting his headers... but that dont matter as long as it looks good......

    now back on topic good luck on the removal it will look good when done.

    i just thought i would mention it because i always see them missing in these parts.... ntm he has power brakes and i know how hard those ones are to find especially when hes over seas. its good to know he has them. wish i could give insight on the hoses but i dont have a v8 in my car.

    A little progress. Smog pump unmounted, I didnt got an idea how to plug this metal pipe shown on image 4,5 and 6.
    On 1st image [whit my hand] I show how i plugged smaller hose [this one whit plastic something :p] from smog pump.

    Now I need to know which unneeded hoses can I remove from engine bay to make it a better looking one..
    If you need a more specific image from another angle let me know.
