TFI type coil bracket idea

E-core TFI coils are inexpensive and produce a nice spark, and this is good.

They're a little awkward to mount, and this is bad.

Here is an idea I had for big block applications.
I'm really not sure about the appearance of it.

What do you think? Too Ugly?

Looks fine, and I'm sure you'd round off the corners.
I just mount them with a piece of aluminum angle stock using the 2 holes on one side of the coil, but I haven't mounted one in that location yet.
One of the beauties of those coils is they can be oriented in any location.
I like to use the OEM-style pigtail connector.

I wonder how it would look with coil/bracket painted intake color

The bracket is fine, functional and looks great.
Now how about a cover of some sort to hide the rest of it

that beast would take some getting used to

It's pretty ugly. The aftermarket ones costing 4 or 5x as much with aluminum brackets integrated
Are slightly better but still awkward appearing in my opinion.

I'm pretty well done running canister coils on anything I care about, so maybe
I just need to get over the appearance and stop thinking old school.

No big deal....thanks for the input.

A few mounting options on ebay if you search "TFI coil bracket"

I wonder if the vertical orientation for the connections is the best choice? For the coil wire, a 90* boot would work. But it would seem that the electrical plug-in would be better off coming in from the left or right rather than straight up. Just wondering.

not mine

Yeah, I actually bought one of those.

There's a good print out there on a jeep forum too, for diy.

I'll kick this idea around for awhile yet, it doesn't need to be solved anytime soon.
