You go a lot further than I do.

The 2000 PCM is flopping around; only being held in place by the wiring harness. The PCM in the 1995 is resting between the underhood fuse box and brake master cylinder.

Eight 7.3L PSDs in the driveway including a 1994 Crown Vic and 1973 F100/2002 F350. Looking for the next victim.

I did this mainly so I can get the connector back into the PCM without any assistance, and seems to work well.

I got the check I've been waiting on today. This weekend I'll hunt down my PCM code and by Monday I'll be placing my order. BIG POWER HERE I COME!!! Or at least better power.
