I mounted my MSD behind the distributor, on the firewall, its upside down
because I wanted to run all the wiring on the passenger side. I mounted the
blaster coil on the fender well just under the snorkle hose, below the MP
SBEC. I don't know why is matters if the coil is vertical. I have had mine
since November with no problems, its at about a 45 degree angle.
I have noticed I can hear the spark, either from the MSD or the distributor,
from inside the cab when your at idle and the radio is off, I guess its ok.
I'm going to get a new rotor and cap next week just for the hell of it.
Sure like the results though. :)
