Now that's cool. I will go take a look. I have an old pencil case sitting over the main 12v hot junction box on the fender. It would be nice to get something stronger and better looking around it. I just got around to putting a cover over the MAIN fuse. A dropped wrench could have brought on all kinds of fireworks. Thanks for the tip Reed.

switch to a HEI type coil with .5 ohms or so primary resistance and it will put the module to work,then the heatsink and compound really comes into play.
I'm going to set it up with the GM 3 pin E-coil pretty soon...even with the standard coil i can tell a definite difference in performance!

touch the distributor in a smallblock chev or Mopar that's at operating temp and you'll see the harsh environment these modules are designed to work in.
I was surprised when i looked at pics of HEI distributors to find out that the module is inside the distributor, so you know that they have to really get hot! Being mounted on the outside away from the motor i'm sure doesn't stress them near as much...
