I just updated my web site with this information. The new PMD is made better than the old one, but that does not fix the problem of the location where all the heat is at. There is a lot of fixes out there, but where we are in Wisconsin we have had great results with our cooler that mounts to the intake manifold. The bennifit of that placement is no extra wiring is needed.

Old PMD cable Connector works fine on the new grey PMD once the keys are filed down
same for the resistor

Yes you can, just make sure you keep the wiring in order and it will be fine.

^^+1. make sure you use highgrade oil resistant wire and good shrink style connectors. A loose connection in the PMD harness could be very bad and drive you nuts.

check out what Bison said...you may not have to cut anything.
