First post! I have been reading and searching a lot and have had enough of seeing people say check my build site but I don't have enough posts to view links in signatures. :mad:

Where are the common locations for mounting the heater bypass valve?

I am leaning towards the front of the car (to reduce the # of wires through the tunnel) but I have seen a few builds with it either in the tunnel or behind the engine cover.

First, welcome to the GTM forum! Glad you've taken the step to join and post.

I put mine down low below the waterfall cover. I can get to it from the access panel under the car or by removing the waterfall cover. Also keeps some of the tubing short and out of the tunnel. And a short run for the vacuum line that actuates it. Just my $0.02.

Good luck with the build!
