ok........ I got the box for the pertronics out.....the part number listed is 1847 the installation instructions has written.... part number 1847, Bosch 4 cylinder I paid something like $55 for it at a swap meet (Litchfield, CT) ...... if anybody can wait, this is usually the cheapest place to find them for sale from vendors...... when I purchased this unit, I had experience with the larger version that has clearance problems, so when he handed me the pertronics, I made sure to explain what distributor it was for...... and he knew of the problem, and gave me a different model, which is a newer version, with the smaller module..... they were basically trying to clear the old stock.... So if anyone does buy one, inquire about this..... the module size makes a big difference.......
