Back of the block between the heads on a 302 in some cases I have seen it also by the base of the distributor on the Boss blocks ...

The mustangs and F150's after '87 both used the same E7TE heads and block. As such, the F150's were machined for a roller cam, but did not use one. The pistons were cast and dished and may, or may not have had the valve reliefs cut into them.

'93 and up F150s with automatics had the roller cam. My '95 definately has one.
