Since you made it to the 6.0L PSD forum I will assume your question is about a 6.0L equipped truck. The PCM/TCM is bolted to the left fender behind the battery. The FICM (fuel injection control module) is mounted on the left valve cover of the engine below the coolant bottle.

Nope, just a 8V53 detroit would do great. Just feed it air and fuel and it will run all day. No computers needed.

GPCM, but that isnt too much of a "computer", its really just a solid state relay controller.
