Question Are The Engines The Same??

Would a tune up kit ( plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, etc ) be the same on a 1990 Lincoln with a 302 and my 1996 F-150 with the 5.0 ( 302 )??
I need to know before I pick up these parts cheap..new..

The plugs, rotor, and cap will be the same. The wire set might have a differnt length for the main spark wire. The air filters will be different. The intakes will be different and the water pumps may be different but the regular parts will be mostly alike.

Thanks. Sounds right. I checked and the plug wires are different but the other ignition parts are the same. If I can save $ I will get the parts and just buy the correct plug wires if needed.
