    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Do you guys think an igniter made from the chevy HEI moduals could be mounted inside the Left hand side cover? Or would it get too hot and melt it.:)
 
other than the triggering setup, you will have no advance curve, you'd better mount it to a metal heat sink or it will overheat and quit. probably before it melts the cover.

I thought it might be nice just to have it there on the side where it plugs in, Instead of mounting it on the right and running the wires across to the left like my stock igniter box.
 
I'd put the HEI on the battery box, where the stock ignitor fits. There should even be a little airflow down there which won't hurt since I've heard those units run hot.
 
silicone grease the bottom of it and mount it solidly, in its intended application the distributor body is the heat sink.
