I'm going with the Jeep Wrangler tank. If I remember right, I ordered one for a '90 model FI tank. I'm mounting it under the bed, behind the axle.

My harness was a conversion, not custom, so I had only so much wire to work with.
Yea, I'm pretty sure I'm going to mount it in the engine bay. Probably on the driver side fender. I have an a/c truck, so that spot on my firewall is taken up by the heater/ a/c stuff.

If you can, get that stuff done before you have your kid! Congrats by they way! I've got 3 of them (oldest will be 6 in a couple of months). All of my work on the truck is after 10pm. Hence, why I haven't finished my gas tank yet - I need to cut some more metal out, but their bedrooms share the garage wall.

Anyway, I was looking for a picture of the engine that showed where each connection point was located. I think I have most of them figured out, but I second guess myself too much and worry about hooking things up correctly. I have the injectors, alternator, coolant connection hooked up. Pretty sure I can do the transmission connections. But, there are several like the oil pressure (I think it's behind the engine), knock sensors, MAF (I'm afraid I may have a wrong connection type for it), and some others that I don't remember what they are called.

Luckily, all of my connections on the wiring harness are labeled. I just need to figure out where those connections are on the truck motor. I've seen a lot videos on the car motors, but the truck intake throws me off when when looking at pictures/videos 'cause they are slightly different.
