Re: 5.3 into 72

Are you going to have enough harness length to do that? The back wall is another 20" or so from where most harnesses would stretch to.

Re: 5.3 into 72

Bill at bp said I'll have 5 foot of harness to get into the cab with. I explained specifically what I was looking to do and he reassured me it was possible.

Re: 5.3 into 72

Anyone have some advice on where to pick up some rubber isolators to mount my ecm and tcm to their brackets? As BP advised me, I don't want them to be grounded.

IMO just go grab a small 1/8" sheet of silicon. Reason I say this is that; its cheap, it can be used for gaskets and other stuff, and it has a greater dampening/isolation effect than rubber, plus is far more chemical resistant.

I took a little weatherstrip adhesive and put two little strips of silicon sheet on my ecu to do just that.
