Need help and pointers for wiring a 2.8 by. I have a 2.8 in a stang 2 and have never wired up a ford before, I'm used to the two wire chevy system. Is there any upgrades I can use to better this system? Car is chain n bang type build so not looking to sink a bunch of money into it.

No. He probably meant 2.8. It's the V6 offered in the Pintos and Mustang II. But go through the 2.3 thread and they will have a diagram for the duraspark ignition that should be the same.
Other than wiring up the distributor, I would replace the starter solenoid, old ones seem to always fail when you need them most.

I'm sure you could get a points distributor for it, but duraspark is easy enough to wire up. Hopefully it's easier than finding points for a 2.3. It took me a while to find one of those being is it was a 1 year only kinda thing. |

Hmm... autozone worked for me.... They're out there, but yeah 74 was it for points on the 2.3. How long ago did you get yours from a parts store? 2 years ago when I tried finding one in a store they all had a listing, but when they tried ordering it for me, the vendor said out of stock. That was at Autozone, O'Reilly and Napa. |
