yes, when you mount the coil vertically, the energy in the coil combines with the magnetic field of the Earth and increases the output energy by about 15%. This typically means about another 8-12 HP, so I think its worth it.
JB - just kidding, it actually makes no difference. Mount it anywhere you want.

Dunno. The OEM coil location on the Mustang was mounted horizontally in a
bracket bolted to the top of the intake manifold.

But I have heard lots of "they say" talk that vertically is better. So
all mine are mounted vertically...
