what can i do to my computer
i just rebuilt the engine in my 90 bronco with 302 and put in a cam along with new headers and exhaust system, knn fipk kit also, and i will need to get a chip for the cams, but i saw that superchips has a programmer that you can just plug into your original computers dianostics plug and program it to the specs you need, is this true? if so where can i get one and if not what chip can i get for it my truck and where can i get it. thanks for the help

For a 1995 or older you'll need to use a chip because the programmers will not work with it. Your 92 does not have a flashable computer and has to be reprogrammed with a chip attached to the PCM service port.
How radical is the cam? What are the specs on it?

No such thing as an emissions legal custom chip. Only chips for stock applications can be emissions certified (unless you want to go through the trouble and expensive of certifying your chip yourself).
How much vacuum is the engine drawing right now? Is it above or below 13 inches?
