Where did you mount your MSD box?
« on: August, 10, 2008, 07:29:02 PM »
I really want to try and put my MSD under the dash or hide it somewhere. Just lookin for ideas. Hoping o keep the underhood as uncluttered as I can, hoping to also hide headlight and elec fan relays if I can.

Red doesn't have MSD but instead Ford's Duraspark system.  The control box is bolted on the bottom side of the battery tray. on the underneath side of the angled brace.

I put the MSD box under the dash on my 71 Mach. Plenty of harness.

I prefer to keep my personal life private, if you know what I mean. ;D

Although not "hidden", with the battery relocated to the trunk the passenger side apron is a good place to organize the electricals.  Here's how I did it on my sons '68.  This was an "in-process" photo, it actually looks cleaner now that it's all done.
