I have been observing for a couple of weeks now and have verified some of my
own theories and learned a lot of new stuff.  My first attempt at EFI is
installing a Holley Pro-Jection 4DI on a 302 '70 Mustang.  It has a medium
performance hydraulic roller cam, 9.5:1 compression, 351 cast iron exhaust
manifolds and a 3.50: axle ratio.  
In order to use the Spark Control feature a "Ford non-signature TFI
distributor" is required.  My questions for the group are:
What model Fords use this type of distributor, i.e., where do I find one?
Does the distributor have vacuum advance and mechanical advance?
Are one or both of these functions controlled by the ECU?  me
