Reply to "Installing MSD Ignition"

I too mounted mounted my MSD 6 on the firewall the first time. I mounted the tach adaptor where the ballast resistor was and the coil a Blaster II in the stock coil holder. I then built a bracket directly under the that electrical original bracket to hold the MSD 6 using the holes of the factory electrical bracket. My MSD failed twice and MSD replaced it with a NASCAR box NC. MSD felt either too much heat (too close to the motor or too much vibration). I then placed the box directly behind the battery in the front trunk leaving the other stuff on that factory original bracket in back. The NASCAR box has its electronics encased in an epoxy like material but we all know they carry 2 boxes as well. Jack warned me of this failure problem but I went ahead and bought it anyway. I do in MSD's defence have to say my engine runs much cleaner (I use a torker intake) at low RPM's with the plugs gapped wider. The last time my car broke down the tilt loader guy cinched my car down so tight I beleive my suspension got tweaked on the one side.
I'll try yo take a pix but I lent my digital camera to someone.
