Ignition coil bracket

I have a 65 c10 shorted with the 230 online 6 cylinder.
When i got the truck it had an electronic distributor with a large coil mounted on the fenderwell. That ignition took a crap, and when I removed the cap, found lots of rust inside. Instead of repairing that setup, I replaced the distributor with an original points type. I'm trying to figure out the original type coil bracket, and proper mounting location. Any pictures would be appreciated

i remember them being mounted on the intake. the firewall was always my preference.

eBay would be cheaper Pardon Our Interruption...

I thought that would be the one to get, but the only place that had it in their catalog, was ecklers, but out of stock.
Still not sure where to mount it on the online 6, as there are not 2 bolts on the side of the block with correct spacing.

Post a couple of pictures of the area the Distributor is, any motor and or intake manifold had provided mounting points for a Coil, any motor using a Distributor Had mounting for coils.

Same thing is around 10 bucks on ebay.

It should mount just below plugs #2 & 3 just behind the distributor.

The pic that I posted is for a small block. You will need a bracket like this so it will mount vertical Ignition Coil Mounting Bracket
