the HO has a roller cam wich uses a steal gear on the distributer. The non HO has a flat tappet cam that uses a cast iron gear. These will not work together. If you install the HO dist with the steal gear in the non HO motor it will chew up the cam shaft. You may be able to swap the gears of the dist, just pop out the pin. I know that ford has two different size distributer gears for the 302 one is like a .5?? and the other is a .4?? . I'm not sure what one you have.
