I have a 5.0L from a 90 merc grand marquis im putting in my ford ranger and am using a painless wiring harness. They say to use the mustang ecu from for example 91 ho mustang and i have the one for a manual and what im wondering is how this will affect my firing order since the merc is the non ho firing order and the ecu is for the ho motor. I have it all in the truck right now but can easily pull it i have access to roller cams and heads from a 99 explorer will replacing the mercs with these and hooking up the ho firing order fix these issues or what might be some of my options. Im not in need of the ho power it would be nice but not necessary this is just going to be a daily driver/off roader. Another option i was thinking is an ecu from like a 91 f150 with a manual trany because this has the non HO firing order.
