Unless you can find a ZF behind a 302, I don't think that a flywheel from a ZF will work in the M5OD. The imbalance of a 302 is not the same as a 351 or a 300. I can't help with the computer calibration code, though. Do you have all of the mass air wiring already? Any chance that the computer is still with the truck that the wiring came from?

The 302 w/MAF only came with auto trans so you will need a tweecer to run. The maf is on 94 also . Mine has it but I'll have to check # for you. Also if you have 302 with old firing order(not same 351) You will have to swap wires in injector harness if seems to run flat. My old 93 I had to do this.

You will need air filter box also for the MAF and air sensor (this moved from front intake to air box ) But you can use older intake and run wires to old sensor position. All other wiring is the same basically . Are did you get both engine and fenderwell harnesses? The new ECM Will not work with the old wire setup in your truck . More pins.

But the flywheels are different 302 balance issues I am probably wrong but thought I read post about a diff before.

In a truck. It came with both manual and auto's in the 'stangs, that's the computer he needs. It is commonly known as the A9L and will have this code sequence on the connector E9ZF-12A650-AA.

I am running a 302 in front of a ZF spd with a m50d slave cylinder. The clutches are different from the 300 to the 302, but a truck 302 flywheel will work in that combo.
