Is there a replacement 3FE Relay Box? Our 92' EFI section of the relay box melted. The yellow section that snaps down on the plug.
 
It’s the EFI port. The yellow part is a snap in piece that melted. I’m trying to get more pictures from my son now.

It has fried 3 relays in the last month.

More than likely caused by poor contacts. The entire EFI circuit doesn't really draw that much current (roughly 6.25 amps protected with a 15 amp fuse), but poor contacts will cause arcing at the terminals or poor crimps will cause a high resistance. These are replaceable parts with pigtails that can be spliced in.

I was going to skin the bundle of wires back also and check to see if some are crispy or broken.

I thought about moving it , I haven’t seen that done anywhere though. If it made the problem go away, it would be worth it.
