2.0L Ignition on 5.0L

[GIJoe4500]

Is it possible to use the carb'd 2.0L ignition system with a 5.0L? It looks like a blue grommet Duraspark 2 setup, but I'm not really positive.

Or would I be better off grabbing the Duraspark setup off of a car that is already set up for a 302?

The blue box is the same, the star shaped piece in the distributer makes it fire, four points on a 2.0 eight points on a 5.0...Mike

is the coil the same too?

yes a coil doesn't know if it's firing a 4 cyl or a 8 cyl..
