Yes, I've actually made up a few of those, and used them successfully on a variety of cars including my old Combi Coupe. But there's a fundamental difference between these and the Lumenition products - with ignition amps what you do is use the existing points to switch a transistor, which you then use to switch the coil. The advantage is no points wear, faster switching time and better quality spark. But it's not quite as good as doing away with the points altogether, which is what Lumenition setups do. -- Grunff
