You might want to hit up the Computer tuning forum. Ken (aka webmaster) seems to know quite a bit about all of the ford truck computers.

I am reasonably sure that you cannot chip a 85. According to Ken over on the Chip forum, even a 86 is questionable. Post your question over there and you will get a response fairly quickly.

Good Luck.
