    I just converted my 401 to a 2x4 setup. The coil was originally mounted on the the old single carb manifold. Where is the mounting location on a 2x4 setup. Is it on the firewall?

    Thanks Rick

    It bolts up to the rear of the intake using the same bracket with 2 short 5/16" bolts on the driver's side.:bglasses:

    Mounts vertically on the drivers side rear of the manifold. If you look, there are two bosses in the back of the manifold for the two coil bracket mounting bolts to go into. It is really tight there with the throttle linkage if you have it on a Skylark GS--you will need to put a 90 deg. boot on the coil wire at the coil to keep the coil wire out of the throttle linkage.
