So i made sure to do a lot of searching before resorting to posting about this, but the few posts i found on this topic where either un answerd or not very informative. so here goes. I am gonna mount my Dis-4 within a couple days and i want to get a feel for where everybody else that has a Dis-4 has mounted it. i was gonna mount it on the drivers side shock tower hump. Is there any space under the steering colum area perhaps? After driving home in the rain today i thought to look under the hood to see where the water will get and it looks like that idea is shot, it was pretty damp in that location. If i sealed the holes where the wires come out of the box with a silicone caulk as well as the dip swithces would that make it water proof or is that still a bad idea? I would also run beads of silicone caulk along all the "seams" on the box as well, would this cause a heat problem? Input on this issue is highly appreciated!

Re: DIS-4 Mount Location Help
Using silicone to seal a MSD box is a bad idea because it holds moisture in the box and causes it to corrode. Try searching here,

Re: DIS-4 Mount Location Help
I don't think they make a MSD box that works on LS1's. I know they make coils for the LS motors.sigpicComment
