How thick is that plate? I have a car with the DLIDFIS, but it uses the GM HEI modules, rather than the FB ignitors. The modules were mounted on a thin (22ga) piece of sheet metal when I got the car, and all 3 modules went bad after only a short time. I have since replaced the mounting plate with a 1/8" piece of stainless plate, and used artic silver paste. The modules stay MUCH cooler now. I also mounted it a manner that will allow for good airflow on both sides of the plate/modules, and considered adding a small fan for extra cooling. PC case fans use 12V DC, so they are perfect for such applications....
I don't know what the car ran like before the DLIDFIS conversion, but it has killer throttle response, and pulls very hard all the way to 7K+. It's an SE 6p 13B with RB intake/header and edelbrock 600.
