    [​IMG] I am trying to find a pair of new ignition coils for my 1985 XJ700X. The coil mounting bracket appears to be OE and has mounting bolt holes at 85mm centres. All the coils I can find have 100mm bolt hole centres, as do the ones that are fitted at present, which have had extra holes drilled through the bar to enable them to be fitted to the mounting bracket.
    Can anyone please enlighten me as to the original or correct fitting, and any advice as to the best aftermarket alternative coils that will fit onto the original mounting bracket.
    Any ideas would be much appreciated.

    Thanks for making the effort to reply Tony, I shall certainly explore that possibility.
