       No, but I can tell you it is not from the Bosch ignition computer.  I 
do know that the Bosch L Jetronic ignition computer, distributor and such can 
be replaced in its entity with a "points" type distributor.  By "Points" type 
distributor, I mean any normal distributor including those with electronic 
breakers.
       I intend to replace the crank fired ignition in my 84 Spider race car 
with a normal distributor.  I want to change the total spark timing and the 
curve for the spark advance.  These changes cannot be made with the existing 
computer.  Well, they probably can, but I am not aware of anyone offering 
reprogrammed computers.
