relocating map and coil?

[Flyin Ryan]

Did a way with the egr / egr solenoid awhile back so I would like to move or relocate my map and coil so I can do away with that ugly azz bracket. So where are people relocating this stuff to or where would be the best place?

I toyed with the idea of putting it inside the truck behind the dash as long as I was moving everything else there, but ended up leaving it alone. I didn't think it looked too horrible where it was. I wouldn't get too much vacuum line between the plenum and the sensor for fear of delaying the readings. Coil you can put anywhere, you'll just have to splice some wiring....

thanks alot guys for the ideas.. the pics nallj92 looks like a sweet setup.. I might go that route but then I'll have to figure out where to toss the map sensor

I mounted mine to the firewall near the wiper motor (a'la "Little C"). You can zip tie for non-permanent install or use s-t-screws for a permanent install.

Mine looks similar to nallj92, took a saw to the stock bracket and made it one leg that bolts to the back intake bolt.

I moved my Coil in the the Cowl and I mounted the Map Below the windshield wiper motor.

Here is a picture of it. The black wire comingout of behind the upper intake is the coil wire. The Map is just below the silver painted cover on the windshield wiper motor. The EGR was mounted to the firewall, just above the fuel pressure regulator.

what did you all do to clock the wiper motor? just drill and tap the fire wall?
