    that's a Duraspark magnetic pickup distributor. You will also need an electronic ignition box to run that - a factory Duraspark box or an MSD box

    la compa,
    Yo tambien queria cambiar mi sistema de encendido a electronico y mi decision fue usar este aparatito y te afirmo que trabaja muy bien usando mi distribuidor de platinos y mantener la apariencia original en mi motor.
    Se usa en lugar de platinos y condensador y no se necesita estar cambiando. Aqui te mando este link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Elec...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessoriesy si tienes preguntas mandame un PM y te aclaro tus dudas. Saludos, Julio

    you need to get a replacment duraspark box with the 2 plugs

    Wells Part No F102 is what you need (this is the blue grommet box)


    that yellow grommet box you have is one that retards the timing when the 3rd plug is in use
    as far as factory grommet colors

    Blue was 49 state (most popular)
    Red was CA emissions (higher spark power do not use with ballast resistor)
    Yellow had the retard function in it (3rd plug )(undesirable for retro fit)

    Do you know on which car model or year bring on it?
    here no one of the attendants know about part numbers

    the msd ignition box works too?
