Dave,
An expanded version of the article you reference above can be found

This article goes on to use modern capacitors in place of the
in-distributor unit. Nice pictures and schematics for using them too.
Only thing missing is a source, but that shouldn't be much of a problem.
Still would like to know if a diode could be more effectively used to
protect the points.
