I know Donahue Collector Cars in FL has those brackets . The thing you would need to check is coil diameter vs the I.D. of the bracket as some of the aftermarket coils are a different diameter than the original . Most are bigger and will work ... the smaller ones cause a problem .

Do you have a pic of that bracket you could post?
