Thanks for the nice comments, like all the cars on this site its the power to weight that makes them fun. It's crazy the extent people go to slicing and dicing up LBC's. LOL

Ed, I like that you wern't afraid to do what you wanted to the car. It's hard to tell you stretched it that far. I agree with Tim about the hood. One of a kind packaging job.

Bill just curious, have you thought of mounting the MSD on the shelf instead of the engine? I know the engine vibration can lead to failures.

It appears that the box has rubber isolator mounts - that should help!

It should but I know some one who tried it and went through several boxes before moving it off the engine. Just a thought.

I know the MSD 6AL does not like vibration...(don't ask how I know) the shelf or firewall is best...
