Empty N/A Engine Bay

Hello.. Just wondering if I can see any pics of the most empty and still running and clean N/A Engine bay with no A/C, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Cruise, No Emmissions.. Just the engine block and whatever is needed to make the car run.
I am looking for a Summer project N/A.
I just got a TII Hood because it looks nice and it was almost free so heck why not use it. I just need to find myself a dead, cheap and good condition 2nd Gen body thats ready to accept a new engine and I dont plan on putting any emmisions or anything that isnt needed back under the hood but I do plan on keeping it EFI.

1FastT2 has a really bare engine bay that looks great. I believe that was his name anyways Im sure he will see this eventually. His is pretty much just the block if I remember correctly.

no power brakes? never heard anyone go fo that.
you might also want to add stand alone computer. you can get rid of all that other crap, but you'll still have a rat's nest of wires and hoses.

Tony,

Nope, I'll get around to it one of these days I suppose, but I'll probbably weld two tabs to the strut tower and bolt a brace there, rather than use the 4 bolts for the strut, that way I don't interfere with the alignment each time I need to remove the bar (the camber/caster plate uses bolts, not studs)

I see no air pump, hence the dual alt. pulley, is that oversized??? Looks a little big to me.
