Where to mount Mallory Ignition Box?

« **on:** April 23, 2008, 08:55:10 AM »

I just picked up a Mallory AL6 ignition box and was wondering about the best place to mount this thing?
Anyone have any pictures of how they have mounted the after market ignition boxes?
Thanks

Ouch. Good thing the original HotBoat.com isn't still around.

I've been told that the MSD boxes need to be at least one foot from the distributor but I've seen a lot of pics of MSD boxes within a few inches of distributors and a lot of those were assembled/built by pro boat builders. If you have a engine cover on your boat keep in mind that the MSD 6AL isn't for a marine application. You have to run the MSD boxes power wires straight to the battery.
