Default Ignition Condenser HELP!

Looking for some help with finding an ignition condenser that had a threaded stud or threaded hole where a wire lead can be attached to. Kind of like a model A condenser or a Lincoln v-12 type. Only exception is I do not want one with any brackets soldered on. Just want one that comes with a slip on type mounting bracket. Any help is appreciated!! Closest thing I could find was an Echlin IH200. Might have to see if that works! Hopefully someone has some good info! Thanks!

I've got a few , I think they were from a echlin combo GM set . It had the points and condenser as one . You simply unscrew the condenser , no brackets at all . I'll try to get a pic .

I'll just throw this out there. I am making reproduction brass "trash can" condensers using modern severe-duty film capacitors. These units are robust enough to withstand systems with generators and solid-core plug wire. They usually are sold to guys restoring high-end dual point/dual coil racing ignitions. I make a .22 micro-farad unit that is suitable for use with regular ignition system. They are a little expensive, but the supply of good originals seems to have completely dried up.

A standard motor products RC3 has a stud for a wire lead but not a threaded stud..

A Standard FD64 has a threaded hole, and while it does have a bracket it is poorly crimped on and is easily removed.
