I am currently working on a 81 chevy c10 shortbox. It was a 305 truck that had been swapped to a 350. I am wanting to clean up the engine bay & was wondering what all I could get rid of?
Evaporative canister? Do I need it? Truck is carburated.
There is a bunch of wires that aren't hooked up to anything & was wondering if there is a way to get rid of them?
Anyone have any helpful suggestions?

Does your truck have working A/c and do you like haveing A/c.
I f you do you will need the Evaporative canister, if it does not work
or you do not care if the truck has A/c ripp it out. After taking it out
you can take all the A/c stuff out. then the rest of the stuff will deppend on your state law's

Yes the truck has A/C but it does not work. I thought about keeping it, but the truck won't be an dd. So I think I'm gonna toss it out. Besides the sliding rear window brings in some good air.
So the only reason the evaporative canister is there is for the a/c, then I think it's gonna go bye bye.
Well i'm from Iowa & there are no state laws or ispections.
One other question with removing the evap canister. What do you do with the vent line that runs from the gas tank?

the truck will start up better and your gas wont evaporate out of the hose if you have the hoses hooked up

I think your thinking of the charcoal canister that the vent lines gas vapper re turns to the tank and carb. there is filter on the bottom of it.
that up to the person on how they feel. " and the state laws " on how you want to run it.
