He said they didn't as they kept the msd boxes mounted on top of the dashboard in the driver compartment. However, he did think the wires were sized a bit small for powering the coils. His thoughts were they should be powered by at least 12ga more like 10ga wires. His thoughts were that it might not be just the temp or just the vibration or just too much amp draw, but taken together they could be causing the failures. Though, he is the first to admit he is not technically oriented, but does have a lot of experience with cars to draw upon. Nothing concrete, but perhaps something to consider... -Scott __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
