====Module part numbers==== Some part numbers for a stock-type "990" series module: *ACDelco D-1906/GM p/n 10482820 (used in the GM ZZ4 crate engine) *Standard Ignition/Bluestreak p/n LX-301 *Borg Warner CBE4 *Echlin TP-45 *Standard LX-301 [[File:HEI modules1.jpg|frame|left|If looking for an HEI, choose one that has the 4-pin module seen at upper left, above. The other modules all require an ECM to function correctly.]] <br style="clear:both"/> Use a [http://www.arcticsilver.com/as5.htm '''heat sink paste'''] (available from Radio Shack and computer shops) on the bottom of the module and be sure the surface of the distributor body where it mounts is clean. The heat sink compound (not ''dielectric grease'') helps transfer the module heat into the distributor body which acts as the heat sink. Failure to do this can lead to an early failure of the module.
