is the 4.0L jeep distributor adaptable to the Ford 250 L6.

The dizzy at the link above provides Cam AND Crank signal for EFI computers I was considering the ACCEL DFI for my 250 CID build.
So far there are three issues I can think of / see with the swap:
1) Distributor gear miss-match
2) Wrong oil pump drive shaft
3) Wrong length / shape to interface with our block
The first two issues are not necessarily show stoppers but the third one could be I think. depending on the difference between the Jeep dizzy's body and the Ford's the only thing you might have to do to make it fit is chuck it up on a lathe and turn it to the size / shape you want.
The advantage of having a Cam sync would be that you can now run full sequential with most aftermarket EFI systems and eventually Mega Squirt (that's my *** talking I have not really been following developments with the MSEFI cam sync is prolly not even needed for that but I did see that they are working on a fully sequential unit) (I also don't know what type of signal the cam and crank sync provide with this dizzy it might not be the one needed by other aftermarket or MSEFI system)
I am seriously considering this so if you have any info I would greatly appreciate the feed back.
Keep Sixn'
