Default Radio Noise Capacitor

Hello All,

I've searched for hours trying to find out the correct way to mount the Radio Noise Capacitor to the coil bracket on my 1969 350/350. I can't find any pictures out on the web that shows such a simple thing. The AIM makes it appear that the small phillips-head screw comes from inside the bracket where the coil mounts which seems wrong since you can't even get a screwdriver in there to screw it in. I would appreciate seeing or hearing how it's supposed to be mounted, because what looks nice and easy isn't what the assembly manual shows. This is probably a bit much, but like my father-in-law says, "You never have time to do it right, but you always have time to do it again." I'm just trying to do it right from the get-go.

Thanks in advance.

- Tom

On the coil mounting bracket a tab is bent slightly out that is where the screw threads in to hold the capacitor.
