superchips for 5.0L?
hey
sorry for the history lesson on my truck, but its important to the question.
my dad owned my truck, a 1996 f150 with a 5.0 and an e4od, before me and had a superchips chip installed. i don't know the details on the chip because i didn't give to shoots about it when he bought it, and he doesn't know anything specific about it either, unfortunately. i have searched their site and the internet for a chip for my truck, but i haven't found anything. the truck runs EEC-V and the chip itself says superchips on it, along with a handwritten sticker that says "advanced accessories #2 reflash". advanced is the place we bought it, but i don't know about the #2 reflash. does anyone know the specs of this flash, or is it probably specific to the shop that installs it? any help is appreciated.

Well since the superchips website says they dont make it doesnt mean that they dont have one for that application. All you probably would have to do is just call them and go through that way to find what your looking for.

Maybe not superchip?
I have one for my 93 5.0 but it isn't made by superchip. This is not a reflash of the factory chip but a chip and board that plugs into the computer port. I am not running it now because it makes the truck premium fuel (93 octain only) and sometime only 91 octain is available. Even running 93 octain it will still spark knock under towing and hot conditions.
