I don't see why not. However, there are other locations also. On my 79, the elect. fan switch is located on the passenger side on the head between #6 & #8 cylinders. I'm using a Elderbrock EPS intake and there's a plug in front.

The water pump is about ideal. The head and intake are much less desireable.
