I couldn't find a set made for an FE with a male post-type distributor.
I tried a small block set for a late model 5.0, but they run the wires around the front of the valve covers vs over the top as original.
I ended up buying a Ford Racing generic set and cutting them to length. Had to buy a $30 crimping pliers, but they fit perfectly.

Default Moroso Blue Max

Part #72605, Blue Max Spiral Core 8mm, custom fit to an FE. It's what I use.

I'm using Ford Racing summit# FMS-M-12259-M302 with MSD distributor boots #MSD-8851. Didn't want the HEI style boots.
