Here are some pictures, before installation:

This will eventually be painted and attached to the inner fender.

What do you think? :)

It looks very pretty! :D

What is the switched voltage across the points? I'd guess 5v or less. I ran a set of points across an electronic system for almost ten years at 5 volts. Makes them last a long time. Have you tested the wave form with an O-scope? Could work very well.

Did you build it from a kit?

Yeah its a kit, bought years ago in Perth, Australia for like A$80 but never got the chance to build/install it. I think its at least 5 yrs old. But hopefully all works well. Will keep u updated once fitted.

As promised...

Here are a couple of pictures, painted, and installed on RH inner fender.

Runs like a charm, very smooth and I can feel theres more mid-range torque. Im very happy with the results.
