Superduty superchip on obs

Ok, so my good buddy has a super chip on his 99 6 speed that came of an 01 6 speed and he's offering it to me for a pretty good price. I'm wondering if it will go on my 97 obs 5 speed? Will it work and function correctly without changing injectors, hpops, ect.?

The other thing is a friend of mine had an edge from an 01 .he sold it to a friend with a 97. It worked but when the converter locked ..it was like getting rear ended

I had nothing to do with it so I do not know if the edge was reflashed for the older or if there are adj settings.

I have to say I really don't think it will work sad to say.

Yes it is the 1705 and I think it should because I've read that a guy took one off his 96 and put it on his 01

97Ford7.3---If you do decide to get the SuperChip, be sure to have your buddy set his truck back to stock setting, or it will not work in your truck. They will ony work in one truck at a time.
