Well I spent about 6 hours making really nice mounting plate and am very happy with it. Then I noticed in the instructions that this is only to be used with 6 Series ignition systems which I don't have.
And I can't return it because I opened the bag of parts.

Anyone need a nice aluminum mounting plate?
AND I bumped the A/C hose and made Freon leak out.
Really hasn't been a good week for me.

Post a pic of the mounting plate you made. We'd love to see it!

As others have already pointed out, for 6-series ignition, that's an MSD "instruction" to get you to buy more of their products. This is the recommended 'best' coil for use with the Pantera Electronics EIS.
