Duraspark II part #???
Does anyone know the correct part number for the correct Duraspark II module for a 300 I6? I did a search and was only able to find info on the TFI module.
Also does anyone have a good source for the wiring harness for the TFI - Duraspark conversion?
-Thanks, Rob

The modules are the same for different engines. All you need is a blue grommet module if you are doing a conversion. There where other color modules with special features, so just stay away from them.
Just go to the junkyard and look under any Ford/Lincoln Mercury car or truck and get a module with a blue plastic piece where the wires go into the module. Get the wiring to the dist too. The only thing you need specific to your 6 cyl is the distributor.
If you want to buy new, just buy one for a late 70's truck with a 300 6cyl.
P.S. I just looked up a 79 f150 with a 300 6 cyl at www.partsmerica.com, and looked for an ignition module. They have two choices; a high altitude and one without high altitude. High altitude is a special feature you do not want, the other one is the blue grommet module that you want.

As for the wiring harness, I bought a new one from Jeg's about a year ago. just go to the Jeg's website (www.jegs.com) and type in "duraspark" for the item description.
It is pricey though, at a $100, but it is a NEW harness.

Ford just updated the above part number to:
1U2Z-12A199-A .. BLUE Module (Motorcraft DY-893)
From FTE sponsor y2kfordparts: Ford list price: $104.87 / FTE member net price: $56.63.
Be aware that some autoparts stores sell modules that are made in China = Pure Crappola!
STAY AWAY!!

Your 300 will use the module with the blue grommet. Auto parts stores sell them. You can get a DS-2 wiring harness from Painless Wiring, as well. Autozone sells Painless wiring stuff. Here is a direct link:
