So on with the auxiliary fuse block: First I needed a place to mount it. Above the master cylinder looked good but a bolt from inside the cab was sticking out in the way (just to the right of the third terminal on the fuse block in this pic):

I checked in the cab and it was the screw holding the horn relay in:

So I drilled a new hole and moved it down out of the way:

Block mounted. For now the wires hooked to it are temporary. The wire that currently is feeding the fuse block will ultimately energize the 100 amp relay that will power the fuse block (only when the key is on). With out the front sheet metal there is no where to mount the relay so I just connected it this way so I can run the electric choke.
