MSD Box and carb

Okay, so I know this isn't a completely orignial topic, but I haven't seen it before either... Where did all you folks with CARBS put your MSD box? I'm having a hell of a time finding a place, as I have two air snorkels in the way. But I just finished doing an A/C delete, so that should open up some space. Regardless, I'd like to see some pictures of boxes in carb'd engine bays, rather than TPI over and over and over. Hopefull I'm not alone in this?

I got mine mounted on the passenger side of the consule right next to the radio so I have easy access to it. I don't have to pop the hood every time I want to change my rev limiter setting.
I then ran the wires and cable thru a small hole in the firewall to the distributer.
