split wire loom can be cut easily and is very self explanatory, just snap it around the wires, making junctions can be a trick, but it's not that hard at all..


Does anyone know where I can get chrome wire loom?

I don't know how mine has 89,000mi and the engine looks brand new. the best way to clean your engine is to buy a can of engine cleaner spray it on and power wash it off. (!don't do it when your engine is hot!)

when i wash my car, i open the hood and just wash the dirt off, keep it consistant and it stays clean, I do need to do some polishing though.
