Moved to proper forum.

 

probably computer related. you should really always use a computer from the correct truck age. somebody correct me if im wrong, but i would think that would be logical.

no idea on the "guvnah'" though :/

 

A new flash for the computer might do it, BUT, so would using the PROPER computer..

 

well i would have put the correct computer in it but.......i needed to get my truck goin for work so i had no choice in the matter thanks for the help............chevys rule!

 

LMFAO! That was funny!


But to remove the limiters you need a tuner like a Tweecer or Quarterhorse.

 

OP, why do you feel the need to drive 105+ mph anyway?

 

yeah thats just scary, I think my tires are rated to 107? or something. Blowouts will kill.

 

your 89 f150 did 120 mph at one point? that sounds crazy to begin with. the speedos dont even go that high

 

I think he meant kilometers per hour, which is about 75 MPH.

A 300 I6 getting a 1989 F150 up to 120 MPH would be scary stupid IMHO if such a feat were even possible.

The stories that children come up with.................

Back on topic, the computers are not interchangeable.
