Default Distributor jumper?

I have a 98 that had a 4.0 that I just pulled out and swapped in a 4.6 stroker from a buddy of mine. All my connection connected right up except my the distributor wire on the new stroker motor....it's different.

From what I can tell the distributor in the stroker is early 90s style p/n 53006150 vs the one that was in my 98 is p/n 56041033.

I'm trying to avoid pulling the distributors and swapping them over since I know everything was working fine in the stroker prior to installing it in my jeep....and just wondering if anyone makes a jumper adapter?

No adapter. Apples and oranges as far as distributors.
