Re: 72 C10 for my 25th wedding anniversary

I haven’t been able to work on the truck as much as I would like. On 1/6/22 I came down with COVID. Even though fully vaccinated, I still got all the symptoms: 102 fever, strong body aches, chills, dizziness, cough and sore throat.
Fever and body aches lasted for 4-5 days, doctors made me quarantine 10 full days. Cough and fatigue still persists….. but it could have been worse the doctors say.
Anyway I felt good enough today to work in the shop for a couple hours, I wanted to see if the wiring harness would have enough length to mount the ECU under the seat.
As it turns out there is plenty of length to do this. I used cable clamps and removed 4 of the original bolts from the high hump transmission tunnel cover, installed 1/4” bolts thru the original cover holes to bolt the cable clamps to the underside, then I drilled a hole with a 2” hole saw in the floor pan in a location under the seat. The power cable runs through a existing hole that formerly was used for fuel lines from the old fuel tank. The power cable will have a short run to the battery, mounted to the frame on the passenger side behind the cab
