Well then, mines just down for some maintenance. lol

I went to pick up my last bit of battery cable but the shop closed up before I could get there. Hopefully I'll have time to grab them tomorrow. Then I can fire her up and check it out.

Now the SS is a different story...

She lives! Again.

Finished up the new battery cables, got the new dipstick in the transmission and got her fired up.

Charging great with the upgraded wiring. Just need to top off the trans and give it a powerwash and scrub underneath. Just because I can. The steering rack leak is getting worse, that might be in the near future. RE-making my e-fan harness. My Blackbear one ate another relay. Making a new harness that is actually fused. Would live to do a 34" Rad and fans at the same time if I can.

Since you were just in there, do you think the PCM could be mounted vertically on the fender if the battery tray were removed?

There might be just enough room to mount it vertically on the inner fender. I just chose to keep it flat.
