Chipping a Duraspark?

Well, one of my buddies has his 82 f-150 chipped supposedly, i don't know how this would be done because the truck has no visible mods, and should just have the duraspark ignition module? is it possible to chip a truck with just this basic ignition control?


by the way, if it makes a difference, its a 300 6

I think your buddy is telling a whopper of a fish story.

Desperado: Unless he changed the ecu to a 1984 or newer, it is not possible to "chip" his truck. Ford began using the present ecu in 1984, and still uses a version of that ecu today. Pre 1984 Fords are not chippable with their oroginal ecu.
