I'm trying to decide where to mount my MSD 6A ignition box. I don't want it in the engine bay, and under the dash is getting a bit tight with everything else, so I was looking at putting it behind the drivers kick panel. There seems to be plenty of room and it would get fresh air from the cowl...good or bad idea??
After looking at the build pics of Aluminat8r on DSE's site I think I will mount it to the drivers side end of the DSE VA bracket. It appears to work well there and still have room for the HVAC ducting....boy things get tight under there when you want it all!!
Anthony I was faced with the same problem when I installed my MSD digital 6+. What I ended up doing was fibreglassing the cardboard glove box, and then mounted it to the bottom of it. It turned out very strong and stiff. It has been there for about 2 years or so with no problem.

I mounted mine in the front passenger side fender well with the MSD mounting rubber bushing kit. But the fiberglassing of the glove is a great idea... my cd player is in there and the cardboard is starting to give up !

Cool, you should try it. I got the fibreglass and some 2 part epoxy at a local hobby store. I fibreglassed 3 layers around the entire outside of it. I also put a couple of small washers around the screw holes while the epoxy was drying, so now it has metal reinforced screw holes. The inside part that you see still looks like the stock cardboard.
