Crane Cams EMS computer & remote control module circa 1990

Anyone know more about these Crane Cams EMS computers? I just picked up a 1984 project car that the owner never completed and it has one in it partially installed (the remote control unit is in the dash and the cables run to where the PCM goes but the Crane computer is still in it's wrapper and waiting to be installed. Most all the parts were purchased between 87 and 1991 from what I can tell and I'm having a hard time finding ANY information about them on the internet...

A little info on the engine that I know:
The engine is a reman 350 with a crane HMV-272 cam and ported L98 aluminum heads on it (found the receipt for the porting - says 'mild porting aluminum heads'). The carb is a "stage 2" rebuild from "The Carburator Shop" and was supposedly built / calibrated for the 350 engine.

I'm wondering if this computer module will let the 350 engine run well enough to make good power throughout the RPM range and get decent economy (I'm guessing that's what the dials are for - increase/decrease AFR?)

Any information / specs are greatly appreciated!

I read over on g-body.org, that they allowed all sorts of adjustments, idle AFR, TCC, fan control, etc. I have no proof, Would love to find one at a swap meet or something to tinker with.
