[Spits] Just what is a "Spitire Ignition Reluctor"?

[Berger Bob]

Joe & Dan,

This is a part that goes inside the late model distributor and works  
with the Opus Electronic Ignition.  This fits over the distributor  
shaft and the little black bits fire off the electronic contacts.

The only reason I know this is that I just took my distributor apart  
to install a NOS replacement Opus electronic ignition module.  This  
is what I bought:
