Why is it that you want to replace the points and condensers with these modules? The OMC universal magneto is really a very reliable system, simple to set up, most all parts all available.
Adding these modules adds some complexity and wiring, perhaps some re-engineering of the mag plate.
There are only two reasons I can think of where these kits might be handy:
An upper crankcase oil leak that can’t be solved with a new upper seal: Points will foul quickly when the get oily
A sloppy mag plate: Excessive sideways mag plate slop will cause erratic point settings and running issues
