Cooper has an amp-temp chart for their automotive circuit breakers, you just adjust the rating for the under-hood temperatures. Vibration is the same as anywhere else on the car. ERAs have had their circuit breakers mounted on the engine side of the firewall for almost 30 years now without any problems, but I do think a manual-reset is better than an auto-reset.
