Considering a mass air conversion for my 5 speed '88. I understand that the A9L ECM is what I need.

1. Is this the best ECM for the job?
2. What year(s) Mustang can I find this in?
3. What is the average junkyard price?

Thanks in advance.

1. Yes
2. 89-93 (88 is you can get a hold of a California car)
3. Put it in your pants and say you didn't find anything you needed. Free computer!
Nah, I would figure about $50-100?

The A9M has some nice tables in it.

Are the 4 banger's computer & MAF the same as a 5.0s?

You're gonna need a lot more than just the computer to switch from SD to MAF...

A simple "no" would have done.

lol, no harm done. It's probably because I'm so tired from work that I take things the wrong way.
