What year is the 5.0 out of? Not sure about the carburated. But the EFI's only have the computer ( black box, atv terms ).

I would replace the Distributor with a DUI unit. you can pick them up on Ebay cheep and then it only takes 1 keyed power wire. totally clean and runs great. good luck.

Cool 302 wire up

Personally if I was using a '77 302 I'd keep it simple. Stay with carb and use a
Mallory or Accel ignition. They work great and are very reliable.

You can also go to painless wiring, they can hook you up. They are expensive, but I got a water tight submergable one for my 84 yoda for around 600.

Or put a Pertronix ignition in the stock dist. That is what I have in my 69 Stang. Get rid of that ignition box and get down to the minimum amount of wires as stated before, simple and easy to work on.
