Where does the coil go?

On a '74 F250 with a 460CID, where does the coil go? Is it on the drivers side just behind the A/C pump (if has A/C) or on the passenger side like an M motor? Also what kind of braket holds it? Is it the 360/390 style coil braket or like an M motor style braket? I'm trying to make this look like a factory style install so thats why i ask. Also would it have a radio suppression piece on it as well? I wouldn't think so considering most of those years are points style distributors. Thanks to anyone who can answer these questions for me!

It goes behind the A/C compressor on the driver's side similar to a 360/390, and fit's in to a 390 type bracket. I'm not sure about the radio suppression device. My truck is a 73 with a 460 in the place of a 240, and I converted it over to electronic ignition.
