had a bit of a setback about a month or 2 ago...ill let the pix speak for themselves....

 

Damn, that`s bad. Do you know what caused the fire?

 

Brutal, but still could have been worse

 

Meh, that'll buff out

I'm glad you didn't lose the truck completely. But now you have an "excuse" to do a 350 swap lol.

 

yeah it def. could have been alot worse....and yes i know what caused it...it was a loose fuel line going to the throttle body...

basic breakdown of damages:
plugwires
distributor cap
various wires and connectors/sensors
vac lines
A/C hose
fan shroud
hood

 

Ouch, that is quite a lot of damage.

 

im estimating about 150$-200$ to replace everything....thinking about just taking out the A/C to maybe save a bit...no idea how hard or possible that would be...suggestions?

 

taking the a/c out? its very easy, i did it and it really saves weight/clears up the engine bay

 

it is really easy. but i wouldnt damage it while removing unless you plan on never selling the vehicle. if not cut it out if you arent going to use it.

 

yeah as far as the box i didnt care and broke it as i was taking it out. however i kept all of the wiring for it. everything else was easily unbolted out
