Default Heater relay location?

Quick question, I've looked all around the heater motor in the engine bay and can't find the dang relay! Any idea where I can find it? The car is a '69 small block, thank you!

Thank you, I'll check for it in the AM. Bubba may have moved it for me!

I'm going through my wiring now. Bubba riveted mine to the engine compartment lip, which was ugly as hell because it brought all those wires to right in front of your face. Found the orginal holes in the heater box.

I wonder what was so undesireable about the original location?

Look for holes just below the crankcase vent tube.

Yup, checked again and I couldn't find it in the engine bay. Heater hasn't worked since I bought it so this sounds about right

There isn't one for non-AC cars. UPC 12 Sheet A9. For factory air cars, it's just about where Pete and Paul show it. UPC C60 Sheet E1 Callout #2.

Ahhhh! That makes sense, mine is a non-AC car. I did check the fuse for the heater and it's not blown, any idea where I should check next? The issue I'm having is that when I switch the fan on, I don't hear the fan moving regardless of which speed I select.
