Ye olde TBI has served me faithfully (albeit slowly)for the past 14 years... but its time to go.

I wanted as close to a factory look as possible, so I used a 96 and up ABS/PCM bracket, which means the washer bottle has to be moved. So I snagged a 96-up washer bottle, the aux battery tray, and charcoal canister bracket. The battery is being moved to the left side to facilitate the air box and plumbing.

Looks like a fun build. Been thinking of swapping a LS into my son's Monte. Your plans for the PCM mount just gave me some ideas.

By the way, I have a bunch of magnets from Rock Auto on the side of my garage fridge, I noticed one looks like your Burban. Is it yours???

Cool, I just moved it to the tool box. I got it last year at the Super Chevy show in Maplegrove. I had been looking at it for months wondering, LOL!

I decided it would be best finalize converting this harness to standalone when the engine is in the truck. That way I know where everything will land.
