I'm not an FE expert by any means, but....The online chain store sites list the same part # points distributor for a 390 and 428, so I would assume the 75-76 Duraspark (listed for a 390) will also fit.
A friend of mine has one on the 390 in his 69 F350 ramp truck/race car hauler. Works great.
You can use it with an MSD box. No adapter needed. (They do sell one, but you really only need it if you use a Ford coil with the horseshoe connector ). Just wire it up per MSD:

You can also use a Ford Durasprak contol box.
The reman Durspark distributors genrally run around $40 + core charge at parst stores.
BTW, article on how to recurve one for preformance use. The distribtor in question is for a 460, but the info is the same for any Duraspark.
