i was trying to find the location for the stock igniton box on my friends 88 but it's no where to be found any ideas where it might be? i know mine is aftermarket and plainly in sight but i can't seem to locate his anywhere... im clueless lol

 

relocate the battery to the trunk and put the msd box there..that's what i DID

 

well i gotta find that stock one first before i can't mount anything

 

hes not asking where to put an msd or crane... hes askin where the stocker is... um... there isnt one is there?... ecu, tfi, and coil is all we got stock... as far as i know

 

and if ur lookin for somewhere to put an aftermarket one, the pass. side shock tower, the front of it... btwn it and the air box... thats where mine was gonna go

 

i assuming so too dimebag, i know on my 85 351 w i got a stocker and my 86 i got one too but it's a jacobs aftermarket. he's having aidling problem when it gets hot and i was gonna see if i could replace the ign. box to see ifit was overheating

 

ok... well lets diag that...

has anything been changed/replaced since, or just prior to the issue?

 

yeah it's redpony88's here's a lil what he's got, we were getting some input from some ford tech at our work to see what might be the issue so they suggested the box might be a problem

88 GT 5spd TKO
331 Stroker Kit, Edelbrock Performer RPM II Intake, Edelbrock Performer RPM heads, F303 Cam, 1.6 Roller Rockers, Holly 70mm Throttle Body, 30lb Venom Injectors, Hooker Headers, Flows
Converted To MAF, 73mm C&L

 

what kind of idling problem

and is it tuned?

 

well, it'll surge after you take off and hit the brakes at the first stop sign. after that it'll continue to surge and drop down to about 500 rpm and stall out from time to time unless you keep your foot on the gas, and no it isnt tuned
