73-87 where to put ecm in cab?

I am going to factory efi and would like to have ecm in the cab. I have a psi harness and about 5 feet of wire from passenger side head to ecm. I was wondering where yall are putting the ecm in the cab. Pics would help. I looked behind the glove box but with all the ac stuff there i dont think it will fit.

Re: 73-87 where to put ecm in cab?

I used an flat S10 pcm mount, I believe it came off the top of the coolant reservoir, it was a few bucks at the junk yard. Here are pictures of how I mounted it in the Blazer, I used some sheet metal screws on the top two mounting holes and made a little bracket for the lower mounting hole. It's easy to get in and out and out of the way.

Did you have to do any thing to the glove box to put it there?

I don't have a glove box but I would think with a little modification it would work

I have mine hanging where the old electronic spark control computer was. I have yet to build a mount for it but it fits there with the glove box too.
