I don't remember if I used the stock coil mount and somehow "rolled" it forward or away from the Holley carb or not. This is what I have on my '69 440 GTX with a Holley 770 Street Avenger. No clearance problem with the coil and carb. (yes at the time a little backfire problem since fixed )

Yes that I know , Thinking about it more ... and looking at an online picture ... the plate I made was to get the coil closer to where it needed to be ... I was using a DP4B which moved the coil to the opposite side of the manifold. running up my post count some more .

Previous owner of my car installed a center-hung holley and I have the oval air cleaner for the fresh air hood on my 69 383 to contend with as well. The fuel line for the front bowl is causing me headaches especially. Lot of stuff crammed into one small location. 1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee 383 A4 1970 Plymouth Road Runner 440 FC7 (sold)
