The painless system uses the shutter wheel and halls effect sensor. Just not sure how it matches up to the ford system, or if it would be helpfull to anyone to make a few more of them.
It just drops into the mag distributer.




Did Painless make special parts for that, then? I would be interested in seeing how that wheel compares geometrically to the Ford wheel or to the Mopar stuff.

I believe the Hall output is fixed in voltage and is rectified, so the timing of rise/fall is the only important thing. You would need to tie that Painless sensor into the Ford TFI sub-system, and a remote TFI from a 90s truck or T-Bird would make that much easier.
