The choices are:

A. Back of the motor where the L98 one was. :nono:
B. In a black box next to the motor and know as distributor less ignition similar to what a ford escort has. :bb
C. Submerged in oil in the oil pan. :crazy:
D. Under the waterpump so anti freeze can drip all over it.

And the winning answer is .................... D. Well at least its not C.
