Looks like a lot of work compared to an E-Mag and using the points I'm not sure how you get ignition advance.

I ran across these guys this week.

http://www.g3ignition.com/

Works with the existing mags, if it fails the mags continue working and it's
about $1,000.00

If it works as advertised, it sounds like a pretty good idea.

I  am going to try replacing one Mag on my IO360 Lycoming with an 
electronic ignition. Have replaced both slick mags in the first 320 hours of

flying. One at about 190 hrs and one about 320 hours.
I am considering the e mag. Looks to be a plug & play operation and also has

the included alternator for power. I would appreciate any comments, advise 
or opinions as to which unit is the best.  Is the heat in the engine 
compartment a problem, . My temperature under the cowl runs about 172 
degrees F in the summer.
Thanks
