Mounting mallory 685

I want to mount it on the firewall behind the pcm where my a/c used to be but I'm worried that its too close to the longtubes. Will that be okay?

Should be fine. Might wanna try and use some heat shield or something. They're pretty good about replacing stuff if it goes out anyway. Mine's in the glovebox for what it's worth.

Two bolts and the PCM comes out. There's a grommet on the firewall behind it. Extend the wires and route through the grommet. Voila.

Electronics and extreme heat don't mix well; I'd find another location.

Mines mounted under my Passenger seat, move the seat all the way up and you can access it very easily. Its a really clean set up.

Mines in the center console, very easy access. I didn't feel like having to reach across the car to the glove box to change stuff on it.
