1996: Where to install MSD ignition box?
I am looking for a good place to put an MSD 6AL ignition box in a 1996 LT4 Corvette. There is a lot more stuff under the hood on this one than there was on my 1984. If anyone has found a good conflict free place please fill me in. A pic or two would be appreciated. TKX

More its away from heat vibration and other electronics the better.
Follow the instructions to a T esp with wiring so you dont encounter rfi (hope the term is right) type issues
No offense Camacho but slap who told you that was a great idea

No one told me, I came up with. I just can't see anywhere else without it being a crappy job. The pics on the internet that were available showed hacked jobs on the fire wall. Anywhere in the engine compartment has heat. Inside the glove box? Nope, tacky. Give me a better solution with a pic. Thanks.

This might be a dumb question but I don't know much about msd. Does this work with the factory computer for the fuel injection or is there more to it. I tried to read up on it at the msd site but it really does not say.
