Can someone tell me exactly what else i need to have a full stock charging system? This is what i pieced together so far. I know i need a flywheel, a reg/rec, a battery, i have a stock coil already mounted on the old frame in my shed. What else do i need? Also where is the pickup coil? It doesnt have the little black pickup thing on the front of the stator i guess older model's had something else?

We need to know what year bike you have. What you have there is the makings of two different systems. The TCI box (plastic black box) is for a 80 and newer bike. Everything else you have is the pre-80 point ignition system. We need more info.
 
For a full stock charging system you need a stator, a rotor, voltage regulator and a rectifier, battery and the wiring to hook it all up.
This is all the charging system is.
In your pic you show mostly Ignition parts, It also shows the stator, the big round part at the bottom, and has nothing to do with the ignition.
The black box up top looks to be the TCI box for an 80 up bike.
All the parts between are for a points ignition. Used 70-79. The rod is the advance rod. The parts below and to the left when assembled are the advance unit. The thing with wires are the points and backing plates.
The points go on the left side of the head. The advancer unit on the right. The advance rod goes through the cam shaft to hook the points to the advancer.
With points you need two coils, one left,one right. These need to be 4.5 ohms or there about.

I have a 79 engine im building and a 1981 frame in my shed. The ignition box i pulled off of my 81 frame, since that piece is garbage what other major components do i need besides fuses and relays to have a full pre 80 system? Also do you know how many little washers go behind the weights on the advancer? Im missing a spring and might be missing a little washer. This is a diagram i found i dont know if its correct you tell me!
