Re: Engine Bay detailing on a '56 dual carb car

Back to the coil, could the placement in the 2 carb cars be related to the newer type /larger spark plug wire separators?
I looked in my car and I can see no trace of holes for fixing the coil in the firewall. It is fixed with the two screws at the almost rear part of the upper head, where the vaccum tube and ground strap are fixed in HH56's car, and in my car the ground strap is fixed to another screw, just in the rear of the head, that is, between head and firewall. My car has the much smaller earlier type of spark plug wire separators.
