Hell yea, we have alot of members on here from DFW. Spectre and I almost met up last weekend to go search through some junkyards.
Most people mount the MSD box in the engine bay.
Sealing: Do not attempt to seal the MSD. All of the circuits of an MSD receive a thick
conformal coating of Humi-Seal. This sealant protects the electronics from moisture. If you
were to seal the unit, any moisture or water that may seep in through the wiring grommets
will not be able to drain and may result in corrosion.
...
The MSD can be mounted in most positions, except directly upside down (if upside down,
moisture or water cannot escape). It can be mounted in the engine compartment as long
as it is away from direct engine heat sources. It is not recommended to mount the unit in an
enclosed area such as the glovebox.
When you find a suitable location to mount the unit, make sure the wires of the ignition
reach their connections. Hold the Ignition in place and mark the location of the mounting
holes.
? If you have a 6A Ignition, use an 1/8" drill bit to drill the holes. Use the supplied self
tapping screws to mount the box.
? If you have a 6AL, 6T, 6BTM, 6-Offroad or "N" Series, use a 3/16" drill bit and drill the holes
for the supplied vibration mounts. Install the vibration mounts, then mount the Ignition.
