We had problems with RF signal killing PCMs when we turned the charger on at the track when the power switch was still on. They are supposed to w fixing this issue now.
is this the new revised box or one of the older ones?

After speaking with holley I ended up just going with their coils. They offer a special deal to customers with the older units. The coils and harness were just over $200.00 and should be a upgrade over the factory coil. I really can't complain about that long as it works....

So when did they say you will be getting the coils and the harness? Because This is news to me. I paid more than double that for the setup. And the old unit. I'm just wandering if Holley will ever do anything for people who have bought the original units. And not disclaiming anything about them, along with the coils.

My unit was purchased last summer and is still new in the box. I called back about 6mos ago and had no luck, I called back last week and they worked with me. I said to keep me a holley customer we needed to swap the box out for the newer design, or to just buy it back. We ended up setteling on the coils. I have recieved 3 of the coils still waiting on the 4th and harness. I understand sometimes probs like this happen and I feel they handled it fairly. I do feel they could have handled it sooner, and for all those who have had probs, I think the reason they put it off at first is they probably didn't think the box was the prob. Those who paid full price for the coils should be entitled to some sort of compensation IMO.

Can someone do me a favor and measure the computer for me? Strange request I know. I am looking to see where I can mount it and I cant find anything online about physical dimensions.

Thanks!

About 6.5 x6.5 also need to leave room for the harnesses

Just an FYI for everyone. I just got news from Holley that my Harness (558-309) will be here on Monday. So for everyone who is waiting on parts. This is some good news. That they are finally are getting things taken care of. Thanks.

Dennis is not a reliable source of information. He's not even a good place to buy stuff.

All dominator shipped in the last month was confirmed by Rick Anderson also. Besides I go to Bowling Green 2-3 times a year, if it doesn't work as advertised I'll show up in person and someone will make it right.

If I order a Dominator ecm from Summit how will I know if it is the newer box or older box? Or should I just order it straight from Holley?

According to holley the problem is fixed. They said the ecm's will not fry but will reset if a problem occurs. They claim they have techs running 30 lbs on stock coils now with no problems and believe any further issue have to do with customer wire routing/gounding. I went with the hp kit anyways but I don't know if I completely belive them.
