Default MSD 6A Ignition - Mounting options???

Where the hell can you stick this enourmous thing?

Im seriously considering going pro stock style and mounting it on the firewall inside my car on the passenger side.

Weight and Size: 2.75 lbs, 8"Lx3.5"Wx2.25"H

here is where i have it now. just use some aluminum strips from home depot that i cut and bent into brackets

I also at one time had it mounted on the firewall directly behind the intake manifold.

Also the blaster ss coil is muche easier to find a mounting spot then the blaster 2.

I built a custom bracket our of steel that is below the battery mounted where the shock is. I will get a picture of it so you can see when I get home.

I always mount mine on the pass. side firewall just cut the padding and carpet. Its better to have it away from water, heat, dirt. Use the rubber mounts. My $.02
