correct me if i'm wrong but...

if it has a control module on the distributor then it is EEC IV  if not then it is the other one...

All I can say is that my '84 had the distributor mounted module.  I had a motor from an '83 Crown Vic and the distributor had nothing on it.  No vac advance, no ign module... nothing, wasn't even adjustable, it had pr0ngs to keep it from being turned.
