Looking for some help on installing an MSD 6al box on my 360. Anyone have any pics of where a clean place to put it is. I am thinking the fire wall. I am also putting an MSD distributor but I'm not sure if I should do it myself. Any comments would be helpfull. The car is a 70 Challenger. Thanks

Easy to install
Just get the right size wires and solder them in.
Good ground and battery connections.
Mine is an A Body BB but here is where I put it.

I've heard of some guys mounting them under their battery tray. I've heard of other guys mounting them under their dash inside the cab.

Definitely something your entry level mechanic can accomplish. Just follow the instructions Distributor has good instructions too. Will plug right into the MSD box green and purple wire connection.

That's where mine started out for the first 5 years or so. I moved it under the dash 2 or 3 years ago. The unit keeps cooler inside, as opposed to getting all the underhood heat, which should make it last longer. At least that's what I'm thinking...

Easy to do, especially with their distributor - follow their excellent instructions. Easy upgrade for the first timer.
