electronic ignition w/o a module?

I have a 76 360 in a 68 barracuda. It looks like a magnetic pickup in the distributor so I'm assuming it's electronic. It also has a big cam and I've been chasing down its timing. There's a ballast resistor, a voltage regulator (I think?? little silver box) and thats it. the wires in the distributor go to the coil. I ordered the "advanced curve" distr kit with the "orange box" and I'm wondering how I was getting along without a module b4 and do I leave the voltage regulator alone when I instal my kit?

thanks
