It says it's 1.14 venturi in the description and it worked fine on my 2.8. But you have bought enough stuff from China I assume to realize the quality can be iffy sometimes. But you can't beat the price and it would give you something to work with. Parts from your original carb will fit on the China carb.
There is another thread on here somewhere, where a guy used this distributor with success. It is not plug and play. Nothing for your engine will be plug and play, since you are getting rid of the original system on it.

Thank you so much for the detailed reply. I really appreciate your time and help!There is another thread on here somewhere, where a guy used this distributor with success. It is not plug and play. Nothing for your engine will be plug and play, since you are getting rid of the original system on it.
If I remember correctly, your new distributor has the red wire for power, and the black wire for the coil negative. Your original coil + wire should be a white/lightblue stripe wire. Leave this connected to your original coil, but then strip some insulation back on this wire and tie in the red wire from the new distributor. This will power the coil and the new distributor.
The original coil should have a green wire on the negative terminal. Leave it connected to the coil and cut it back in the harness as far as you can so it can be spliced into the black wire from the new distributor. Make this splice, you are done besides timing the engine.

2.8 distributor wiring by D Franklin, on FlickrYes, I have an 85 bronco 2 I’d like to convert. I was thinking of trying to use this distributor with a duraspark or gm hei icm and see if it would work. From what I’ve seen it’s pretty pointless to try and locate a Cardone distributor for the conversion so just trying to exhaust all options.
You do not need another control module like the DSII or the HEI module. This distributor has the module made inside it. Think of it like a pertronix module that replaces the points in a old style points distributor.
