Default Motion Inc All Transistor Ignition System

Can anyone help on this Motion Inc, Subsidiary of Tung-Sol Electric Inc, All Transistor Ignition System? I have three NOS systems but can't seem to find out much about them. Here are a few photos. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Al in Maine

Is this associatiated with Joel's Motion? Looks like a ballast resistor, coil, and perhaps a capacitive discharge ignition system. Very cool. Pls let me know if you are interested in selling one of your units.

Marty Schorr mentioned this ignition in his book.
If I remember correctly, this is where Rosen came up with the name for Motion Performance. He used these systems early on.
Someone correct me if I misquoted this.
