I fabricated some spacers to raise the mounting points of the ECM so it doesn't interfere with the upper footbox sheetmetal:
I then cut a hole in my firewall for the computer and mounted it by through-bolting it through the cross frame member on one side and tapping the other with a 1/4-28 thread. I had to tap the inboard bolt as I inadvertently placed this hole over a frame junction and weld. It feels very secure even though it is cantilevered out quite a bit.
Boy, can I relate to that. It's the tradeoff I suppose for going off script.
That's a clever spot for your PCM. I don't think I've seen that location used before. Definitely tucks it out of the way, minimizing visibility.
