Mounted mine on strut tower behind fuse box also. Fit perfect, wires are nice and close to harness at coil/ECM area, and no problems for several years now.

Re: Where to mount MSD Digital 6 plus?

I just finished installing my Digital 6 behind the fuse box/on the strut tower. Ran into a problem with the rubber mounts causing the box to sit up too high--it's causing my hood to buckle a little. Is everyone else using the mounts? When mounting my box, I put it as far right toward the fender that I could. Also, has anyone had a problem getting the box wet from rain in this location?

mine is mounted on the fire wall about directly behind the right side cylinder head & up a little makes for a really clean install plus hard to see unless you look back there for it

Re: Where to mount MSD Digital 6 plus?

I just drilled 2 holes diagonally from each other and ran some self-tapping bolts into them and I didnt use the rubber mounts since they caused it to sit to tall...I dont think it will cause any issues with vibrations cause I have it fairly secure...I have to slowly put the hood down so I dont hit the box also...

Here is a pic...
