ignition coil bracket

I have an 87 GTA TPI.
Im looking for something that will hold my coil in place.
I have the mount that bolts onto the intake but Im missing the bracket that keeps the coil from tossing around.
Checked another GTA and noticed the bracket was part of the coil, is there a bracket available?

It's not really part of the coil, it just bolts to the bottom of it. for that matter, it's just a piece of steel with a 90* angle bent in it drilled to match the holes in the other bracket and the 2 holes in the corners of the coil, when I swapped for a crane coil in my formula which was a little larger than stock I made a new one from a scrap of aluminum that I had sitting around.

Re: ignition coil bracket

Thanks forthe reply.
I actually just fabbed up something quick with 2 peices of metal with 2 holes either end bent it 90 deg and painted it black, looks good and is tight.
Lucky for me those peices were just in the tool box, only thing I am missing are the 2 bolts that go bolt into the mount.
You know what size and thread they are.
