You can actually stick your hand down in the engine compartment and have room to turn a wrench. Modern vehicles you can't even fit your pinky in there anywhere. Tune up requires pulling the engine, etc.
the drivers side of my engine compartment is so tight in spots i almost have to drop the brake booster to tighten the headers and get to the 7 and 8 plugs.
oh yeah on topic i have shoulder belts too.
