hey raymond, maybe you can answer this

ive never been able to get a straight detailed answer on this

is it possible using a mustang computer wiring harness, injector harness, mass air meter, A9L and other related parts to convert a gen 1 to mass air and then use a bauman TCS to control the transmission? is there another option for transmission control (ive heard using the factory computer as a stand alone transmission controller is possible but have no idea how that would work

anyways what im getting at is that at least for me this would be a cheap alternative to buying an aftermarket mass air system (i know its not always needed, im more interested in being able to use the A9L) as i have or can get most of the required parts. the only expense would be on the TCS which ive heard is a nice thing to have anyways

whats your opinion on this?

Jeff Sparkman talked about doing this a number of times. I'm sure it's doable, but the wiring is no small task.

I think an even better/cheaper idea is to use the VEX1 processor (talk to Kevin Leppert on the harness) and an EEC-Tuner

Mike,

Before getting the EEC-Tuner for the VEX1 that's exactly the route I was going to take. However, my truck is already setup for sequential injection and it would be a rather simple matter of relocating a few pins in the EEC harness. It's a bit more daunting if you're looking at a stock harness.

It's just a matter of patience, though, and splicing...

what is the VEX1? and is datalogging available for it? (my main reason for wanting the A9L)

It's a mass air computer from a 5.0 F-150 with the E4OD tranny. It's what PSP/APE used in their mass air conversion setups.
