Problems with 1994 bronco(engine swap)
here the low-down. my bronco came with a 351W in it, and the motor finally let go. i bought an 88 f150 with a 302 for a motor swap(truck was only $50 lol). anyway, i have the motor in, almost finished the swap, but ran into problems with my distributor. the one from the 302 has a different connector on it, and the one from my 351 is to large to fit. do i need to swap my wiring harness??

The 88 truck had the TFI module on the distributor and by '94 thay had moved it to the fender. The 2 choices that make most sense are, modify your wiring harness to reach the distributor mounted TFI, or but a newer 5.0 distributor. If your Bronco has the E4OD tranny the 88 harness is no good to you, and changing all that is an awfull lot of work for 4 or 5 wires.
