Ditch the windshield washer fluid reservoir. My squirter didn't work anyway so it was an easy sacrafice for the better ignition.

You could move the relays & ditch lots of ugly wiring leaving a nice spot next to the brake booster.

I put my MSD box under my charcoal canister. I got a couple of spacers, and bolted it back down, and everything fit no problem.

i put a buddy of mines on an old alarm horn bracket that was mounted on the driver's side strut tower. it's far enough from the heat, and it's sitting there all nice and pretty when you open the hood. the accel box is considerably smaller than the msd, so there are lots of options.
