dont use the metal bands to fit the yellow coil, use cable ties or seat rubbers from the 2cv seats

yes I experienced the bands at Mallory last year, I very quickly threw the metal bands out of the box and headed for my stash of cable ties. we had our Mallory car only firing on one and it was the coil arcing down to the bands, shit design!

I think I'd move that P clip on the brake pipe to the other side of the coil. The master cylinder and chassis aren't (hopefully!) going to move in relation to the bulkhead, but you do need the coil to cope with the movement between the gearbox and everything else!
