John, believe it's the same as the regular coil bracket just mounts in a different place on the intake manifold.

Dan's picture shows the same bracket and location as the one on my 4-speed car.  Two votes for this one!

With the coil in that position, will it clear the modified linkage for the throttle, that you have to make for the 2X4 set up on Skylark GS?

Here is a picture of the throttle linkage and coil before I disassembled.  Everything clears fine.  Brian's advice of turning the coil so the connections are out of the way is a good one!

Cheers!
