Re: Ignition box mounting location any suggestions??

In my blazer I placed my MSD box on the passenger side floor up as high as I could. I really don't know why I did that but I like how it it's pretty impossible to see from the outside and you don't even know I have it by looking under the hood ( the distributor and coil might give it away though). I'll try to get a couple pics later for you it you want.

I'm still deciding also, . Does it matter how far from the dist.?? Apparently not, if it works on core support.
Pics please of under dash would be cool.

Distance from distributor didn't seem to matter. I had it hidden behind the seat of my 67 El Camino.

Just one but here you go. Oh and the buzz is minor, you'll hear it but it's like a really quiet electric razor...real quiet. Actually it's more like a tick.
