Ok this might be a vast question, but maybe we can all chip in and create something as a guide to what you can remove from your engine bay. There are so many wires and vaccumes that i have no idea what are and whether i can get rid of them or not. I know basically the AC and accompanying hardware and the smog pump, but that's about it. Any help?

BTW we're talking everything except for the heater so i at least have defrost.

BTW my car is carbed, so the air silencer is long gone, and a CAI isnt needed. I'm thinking more along the lines of just identifying things really. I know all the smog junk can come off, but there are TONS of vaccumes on my motor that i dont know if i can scrap or not. This might be a question that cant be answered over the net, since you'll probably have to see them to know if they're removable.
