    Hey guys,

    Been enjoying my vacation for the rest of the year as I have been in the garage for at least a little bit every day for the last week. I've done a little heat management on the AC Blower Relocation Kit from Shane that fits perfectly. I was able to get the front piece covered in one single sheet of heat reflective film, no easy task, just took it slow and methodically.

    I'm moving on to the Heater Bypass valve next. I've done some searching, found a couple pics of the locations that people have done in the past, but wondering if anyone can tell me if I'm going to have any issues mounting the valve on the passenger side tunnel frame rail and just letting the value itself sit on top of the cooling lines. What do you think? Any issues I'm not seeing 20 steps ahead of where I'm at?

    That’s generally where I have my bypass. Just remember that you will have some other wiring for the engine and other things in there too. I put my bypass up a bit higher so it was above the wiring and easily visible and easily changed. It’s going to to be closed in and only visible from the top.
