Here is a quick, easy and light weight way to mount the coils.  The

wants details, I can post a drawing.    Jerry

Very neat and tidy solution, but what is the stress on those tubes? Strikes
me welding fittings on the middle of a tube carrying compressive loads might
lower the buckling strength a fair bit. Did you consider mounting the coils
brackets on P-clamps between the upper and middle mount tubes?

The tubes are pretty conservatively designed for every day use Mark. If you 
dropped it in at six G's or so the tube might yield downward from 
the combined inertial down load from the coils and the compressive 
load from the engine inertial loads. Serves you right for dropping
it in :-)
