This is how I did it. Used two adel clamps on the motor mount.



It is quite firm and not prone to vibration at all.

Regards,

The advantage of the location I chose, is that the bracket is mounted to a stiffener angle (at least two rivets are). It's also an easy run from the gascolator.

You don't want it vibrating and work-hardening the copper tubing, which can crack.
