94 distributor

i did an efi 302w /94 efi 351w swap in a 86 f150 I dont have the means to do a distributor gears swap, so i was wondering if it we possible to rewire a 94 351w distributor to work in the 86

Your post is a little hard to follow, so let me ask this: Your truck is a 1986 F-150 that originally came with an EFI 302, right? And now you've swapped in a 94 EFI 351w, right? Why won't the distributor that came with the 351 work? What parts of the new engine did you swap over?

You can't mount the module on the fender? Worst case scenario, just buy a distributor for an '88 F-150 with a 351w.

How about taking the fender mount and making a stand on the motor?
