Perhaps I didnt write it correctly....Since ive been an automotive mechanic for over 25 years I have access to the lastest technology and its the first place I looked for an alternative before I fully researched its actuall function and found it to differ greatly,so I understood your meaning! But its not an option,hence my prase,Im not going down this path" as its just not compatible...Ive given the whole unit including primary coil and points and a diagram to my elec mate and he will sort out the best option.
I have found some evidence of early suzuki bikes using a similar system;but again id rather just find the components to fit back in the original unit if possible....
