its not the finished pic but i had to move the power steering res over a bit and i added some battery terminals above the box..it turned out pretty well. Eventually I'm gonna pull the ac box and mount the ignition back there.

riceburnerz28 : what dampener do you have on there? in that pic?

bad99transam : I saw a guy had his box mounted on the flat spot right next to the fuse box. Here, I circled the spot. If you did the fuel line mod so they are out of the way it leaves that spot free and clear.
