Has anyone found a good place to mount the MSD ignition box other than the crowded engine compartment??

I don't know if there's a hidden spot under/behind the dash firewall area or between the front bumper & radiator??? The engine compartment is overcrowded as it is without cramming in anything else. Nitro

 

I mounted mine where the factory computer was, but there are some other ideas in this thread.

I installed mine under the passenger seat....seat doesn't get used much in my car so its was out of the way. I recently re-located my battery to the back of the car and ended putting it there instead. Now its a little easier to get at the rev chips.

 

I've removed my washer bottle, so I built an aluminum bracket, and bolted
it right above the charcoal cannister. I also am running a 12v muffin fan
on the bottom of the bracket, and will be running a fresh air tube through the
bottom of the car to keep it cool. Looks great, and is out of the way.

 

Great! I've been scratching my head for an alternative location; not that I need a spotless engine compartment, but I definitely don't want to add to the factory clutter.
Thanks Guys! Mucho Appreciated!!!! Nitro

 

I mounted mine partially under the dash on the passenger side. The only problem so far is that I can hear it (and it's a little annoying), so I might mount it under the passenger seat like smallblock383 did...

 

Hey Neagan,

About your MSD box location - I installed mine under the rear seat
drivers side. Ran the wire under the door sill plate.

I mounted mine near the hood latch in front of the radiator. Been there for 7 years with no problems.

 

 

Its best to keep the wires on the box as short as possible and I know that cane behard considering there is not many places under the hood t mount these boxes without it looking tacky. I mounted mine where the charcoal canister use to be. it is low and out of sight and it gets some fresh air to keep it somewhat cool.
