My '55 Tbird is running an ECZ9425-B intake manifold and a 1848-1 Holley 4V. The stock coil bracket is mounted in the two holes on the passenger side of the intake manifold.  I have experimented with numerous carb combinations from dual feed Holley's, to triple carbs and dual quads. The issue always seems to be the coil.  I could mount the coil on the firewall, but I would have to drill holes in it. I have seen coil mounts that mount the coil vertically, but I wonder if the coil will hit the hood?  Are there any off the shelf solutions to this issue?  Other than the stock location, how do you mount your coil?  Thanks...
