If I remember right, black and green are the older units, blue is the most common, red is CA only, white has a crank retard, yellow is the dual-mode with a run retard, there's another one I can't remember right now. :hmm:
is there a specific coil to be used with the red module ?

FWIW I wouldn't use an aftermarket box, only an original duraspark or Motorcraft replacement. None of the O'Napa Zone Boys ones are up to oem standards.
Great ideas have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.
