5.0 with auto eec used with a manual trans


Can you find or show charts for all the other mustang ecu's? I would really like to see more info.. Knowledge is power. LOL And helpful

Those 3 are the only ECU's I can find info for - because they are the most popular. The X3Z is liked because it is internally calibrated for 24 lb. injectors. I just used a 73mm C&L MAF and changed the sampling tube.

I actually have a Mass Air Adjuster made by Interactive Systems & Technologies. I've been meaning to send it back to them for repair, because I got it wet.
 
I made there MAF converstion kits for a long time. I have a lot left over still.LOL. I have a lot of there stuff in my shop. But as for the X3Z.. WoW. WE all around here dodge them The A9L has always been hot. The Adjuster u have is it the plug between or the sensor that mounts on meter?

It goes inline with the harness. It has a lifetime warranty, but I bought it about 12 years ago - and I'll be damned if I can't find the receipt.

Oh, and I also have their ACT relocator kit on my Stang as well. I used the Explorer lower intake, which has not hole for the ACT sensor.

EDIT: It's this one:

The inline one My friend Tony( He also made the micro squirt for mega-squirt systems) & I helped them come up with. I do not like either really since they play with voltage BUT.. I like the one you have over the sensor that mounts on the meter. Gives more options to swapping set ups. HMM> Think we just jacked Kayles thread.. PM to chat more.. DO not want to jack a thread..

Yep I have a few them adjusters still in the box at the shop. Also the TPS plug in meter they made.

Good idea - PM sent.
 
I dunno if you want mass air or not, but i have a sd ecm from a 89 f150 5.0 5spd, ill let got cheap if you want, i did a mass air swap on that truck i used a 95 f150 ecm and made the harnesses just like the 95 truck harness, it was easy but i had to use the 95 idle air motor, and i had a flutter in the engine when i was crusing down the road, to fix that i had to have a custom chip burnt to eliminate the transmission function in the ecm, after that the truck ran great, but i did swap in a new engine that had the roller cam ho firing order
also at the same time
 
From what I know( been build on mustangs for 30yrs ). The A9P in a 5spd runs great. So many post in the mustang forums will support that. It helps on race car to gain 3 to 5 tenths on the track . No surge issues. But I am looking & trying to dig up info on ecu ideas. I am wondering if the F150 ecu would or would not be a better choice since it is about tow power & toque . Plus a mustang ecu is for HO. 351 firing order over the 302 firing order. So if going A9L or A9P would need to put a HO cam . But the F150 is non -HO. So thinking it would be a better choice. Working on researching this.

i rebuilt my first 351 almost 30 years ago

So shane ur saying all the guys in the GMQ group. cougar group & f-150 are wrong. You can put a HO ecu on a non-HO motor the firing order would be wrong. car would not run right unless you put a HO cam into the non-HO motor to wrk with that ecu.

AS for SD HO or MAF HO. Just to be cost effective I would think the SD HO ecu is a better choice for kmalcom

MAF ecu 100.oo, to rewire to put a MAF plug in 25.oo. A MAF meter 20.oo from salvage yard

SD HO ecu 30.oo to 50.oo. a lil time to movie a few wires.. DONE.

But I still think leave it non-HO & get a f-150 ecu over his GMQ one. If he wants to up te power a bit the rockers will help. But think he not care for performance hp. But tq for the climbs & trails or towwing

I understand all the batch fire & that you can repin. But my point is why go threw so much headache to rewire like i said before.

Also the A9L is better than the A9P in a 5spd stang. So IF he does rewire to go MAF HO ecu I would think the A9L would be a better pick. I am looking at this as cost effective & simplicity.

Plus before I would do all the re pinning wrk, I would think of a non-HO is 155hp & if put a HO cam in your up to 200hp. So why not get a cam. Then either of the HO ecu in there.

Oh.. the link i have had in my book marks for a few yrs. I know the site..

Plus a side note. WOW.. Like the build thread on the pony.. SWEET.




i am perplexed by this when in direction initially to the 150 setup.

the intake capacity of the 150 manifold is huge and bankfire is way different then sefi...i have had surging issues when mixing and matching the intakes and systems.


the ho/non ho is an issue eventually outside of ripinning due to the o2 sensors for the most part....the computer gets pissed off because the banks read wrong.


with a vic motor, i would run the manual trans truck computer and harness....but like said initially....it will run fine with the vic harness.
 
It will run, but you will have a surging idle and timing will be slightly different, but it will still operate. You can run it to get you on the road, but look for an A9L soon...

SVT

not trying to hijack this or anything but why would it make it surge? im just wondering cause I have a auto computer with a manual tranny it only somtimes mostly when its warm the idle will surg and bad enough to were it will die...
 
It's in the programming of the ecu...

Ok so while searching for an affordable a9p can i hook up the neut/park switch up on the existing ecu ? From what I have seen the manual ecu needs a grount on a pin and the auto ecu looks for 12v on a pin the show it is in neutral, cluth in, or park. Would this help the ecu know what it needs to do ?
