Anyone seen twin plug ignition coils like this? (20B carbed content)

Saw this from Rotary13b1's facebook, does anyone know who makes these ignition coils?
The coils are used for 0 trailing split but also would be great for a leading wasted spark setup in the stock 1st gen location.
Best I can make out is they say "Super 7 Coil" but google isn't turning up much. Closest I've found is for motorcycles, but have higher resistance value.

As an aside this chopped Weber IDA for the 3rd rotor is less wasteful than this one that used 3 chopped carbs.
I'm also wondering how it's timed. There's a distributor with no leads so maybe it's probably only sending the timing signal, but it's for a 2 rotor.
Another wondering: I think a lot of Japanese tuners retain the OMP because their gas stations are all full service and they don't trust the attendant to premix.

Turns out it actually says "Super Z Coil" and was made by Wako Technical.
I found a couple of old online auctions selling kits of Wako ignition boxes and coils.
Looks like they were hot **** a while ago, like the Jacobs Electronics of Japan, and likewise no trace of the company existing.
