Need Help with MSD

I am in the process of redoing my ignition system. My computer has been removed and I am going to be running an MSD Pro-billet distributor with the MSD-6AL kit that I purchased from Summit. I found a place where I would like to mount my box, but is there and easy way to mount it to my firewall and still utilize the vibration mounts? How has everyone else mounted their box to the firewall.

I would also like to know where to place the 6al box, I have NO where that I could mount it straight. The only place found is if I remove the radiator overflow and mount it there at an angle and only use three bolts. Appreciate any advice on the subject as well. As I need to put it on tonight, but cannot find a place to do it. :-(

How about here:



I didn't have to shorten or lengthen any wires either, and I can easily reach the RPM pills to change.

you could use the vibration mounts if you made a little riser bracket out of metal (if available. one person on here mounted it to firewall and got his hand up underneath to tighten but said it was tough. what i did was went to home depot , and in the nut and bolt section....all the little trays of hardware they have small rubber bushing type cushion thing-a-majigs. they look like small grommets (i cant remeber they might even be.. but i used those and mounted with self tapping screws and those rubber things.
hope this helps some
