Default Msd 6Al Location?

Where is the best place to mount one of these on a 85 vette?

Thanks in advance.

Mine is mounted under the front (pass.) headlight in the nose of the car. You can make a shield to keep it from getting wet. :yesnod:
Mounting it this way... its away from all the heat.
Installed 4+years ago.
If I remember I will try to take some pics of it this weekend.

Here was a couple pics from my '92.

I made the bracket out of sheet metal and painted it with Krylon. Still looks good today on the '94.

I put it on the driver side, Like in the picture of Gtsyellows car. The MSD wire kit that you buy extra is a good thing to get :yesnod: :yesnod: There are no wires to splice into with the kit. That is a big plus in my book..
