My take is this guy was trying to make a fool out of you.

(Must assume you didn't have the truck with you)

If it's a stock unit it should have a tag on it somewhere, (Motorcraft) & part numbers.

"-----how can i tell what i need help----"

Unclear, ....what exactly is your goal here...??

It is a different gear used on the distributor because the roller cams are billet steel and will eat a regular distributor gear . I know on the 5.0 roller motors the distributor is actually a bit longer shaft at the end , The iron one is the one for non roller motors :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
