Re: MSD box

Which Model MSD Ignition Control Module do you have?
...and which Version of that Model do you have (Current with a Sealed-Connector, or older/ UnSealed)?

Example: Current Version of the 6AL Model:

Re: MSD box

If there is room under the dash, mount it there. The msd will be out of site & not being heated by the engine. When we installed a fuel injection system in a '67 Mustang, we place the msd in the glovebox.

I am gonna try and mount it there. I have heard horror stories of water and the heat killing them. With all my interior out now is the perfect time to try and find a place to mount it. Whats gonna be hard is the heater box
