Black cap, usually say BOSCH on them somewhere.

I changed the distributor and rotor cap though. not that great on details. below are the photos i took

Looks very much like a Denso to me. In a '55 right? Bosch units don't have the knob on them to adjust timing depending on fuel grade (clear cover over it).

it's on a 35 snot. and yes it's to adjust timing. so is it really a denso?

That'd be a denso unit, looks nothing like the bosch

3ND4U1 looks to be the kit

thank you dust. so the kit will be containing the points or the whole dizzy itself?

I'd imagine it would have wiring, some sort of sensor and breaker plate to bolt into your current dizzy.

Shows you on the website

But it comes with

The pickup/module which is the little little red box and 2 wires, this is mounted on a base plate that simply bolts to the dizzy where ur points would

And it also has a black ring, this slips over the dizzy cam (the part the the point runs on) this is the magnet that the pickup senses

It also seems very important according to the website and the instructions they sent that ur coil must the correct resistance otherwise ur module/pickup will fail

I used a hotspark module designed for a land rover.

i had to drill and "cut 'n' shut" the mounting plate for it and modify the trigger wheel that goes over the breaker points cam with a bit of quick bond.

 

i can post some pics up if anyone is interested.

also as you can see I've locked the vacuum advance...

this is to compensate the fact my 4k corolla is a race can and always at full throttle...

and the positioning of the module wouldn't allow the room.

did it just went straight in? didn't have to do anything on your stock dizzy?
