just as the title says, will the A3M1 ecu plug and play into a 1989 mustang GT harness?? I can get one much cheaper than an A9L to get my car running again and would like to do this until I can find a better deal on an A9L...

Copied from Steve89GT

There are a few different varieties of computers... just a few different calibrations.. Here's the #'s of most of the MAF computers that are around. A9L and A9P are the most common.

1988 MANUAL 8LD
1988 AUTO 8LF
1989 MANUAL A9L, A9S
1989 AUTO A9P, A9T
1990-92 MANUAL A9L
1990-92 AUTO A9P
1993 MANUAL A3M
1993 AUTO C3W
1993 COBRA X3Z

According to the chart, it should work with no changes.

sounds good to me. I already bid on it and won, I typed it in google and everyone says that it is the ford replacement for the a9l so I assumed it would work plug-n-play style.

thanks man.

You won't notice a difference between the A3M1 and A9L


You're in good shape!
