computer replacement or upgrade possible?

Hello all,

I was lucky enough to have found a 92 5.0 HO out of a Tbird to use in my restoration. This particular engine uses a computer which has to be "reburned" with each change. Is there a means to replace the current brainbox with a more current technology which will allow the "programmers" to be used?

thanks in advance for any and all help.

steve

You can get a puter from electromotive but thats big bucks. You use your laptop to program...It might be hard to find a puter from a late model that will work.
You could check out Street and performance also. I think they might do what you need.
