MSD 6AL mounting.

This is a quote from the MSD manual.. "The
ignition control can be mounted in most positions except
upside down." Has anyone ever mounted it upside down? I wanted to put it under my battery tray.

mine is upside down behind the glovebox. been there 2 seasons now.

Why not make a bracket or just mount it sideways in that same area?

I mounted mine under my cowl upside down over 10 years ago .
It's never given me a problem.

It's for draining water if it gets in wet conditions. It's basically a bathtub when upside down.

It's not because of any electronics needing to be oriented in any manner.

I've got one under the battery tray on my wife's Barracuda. Mounted right-side up too.

...and as stated above, MSD does not want the end user to mount the box upside down due to moisture issues.

Pretty slick right there !

Thanks all.... Especially clyde with the blue cuda that needs AAR stripes. .. see ya in a couple weeks.

My 6AL has been mounted upside down for 6 years or so w/ no issues. It is in the glovebox though, so it never sees moisture.

heres one of a 69 coronet.

and with battery in.

I mounted sidways
