I remember back in the '80s when the original 1227747 ECM was first getting broken and people could tweak the code for the first time. Jobber tunes for this camshaft and that stroker kit never worked and always had driveability issues. Only the very basic "stage 1 performance chip" type tunes meant to only add a couple degrees spark advance to an otherwise stock engine actually did something without screwing up the driveability to some degree.

Hey, you worked on the 747's too? Great ECM's , just were slow to sample via laptop.
