> MSD in its infinate  wisdom stopped making the 351C Distributor Cam Sync Plug (PN 8521) so if you know of a vendor/supply house or shop who might have one or more in stock let me know off line. The EFI requires a cam sync signal for the firing order of each coil so oil pump is driven, distributor hole is sealed and ignition becomes a sync signal or something like that. Dick Drenske tells me we can modifiy an old distributor to make it work or use/mod the plug for the 351W and just make sure gear lines up with cam while engine is still disassembled. 

You can use a CAMP sensor from a 3.8L Ford V6 if you use a 351C gear and 
machine an adapter to make it fit the block.

Here's the thread from May when Don Franck needed this:
