I don't know if those chips will work but you could always go to a junk yard and pull stock chips yourself.

Chips should work fine for you.

Your either going to have to stack the bins or offset burn them.

Do a search on those terms and your chip and you should find lots more answers.

Also in the stickies above.

later

Another note: you'll need an adapter to use those chips (27SF512). You can use either a G1 or G3 from Moates.net for your ECM (1227165).

thank you two. Yea i know i need to get an adapter, and i plan on purchasing one, thanks for your help. My main concern was whether or not the 27sf512 chips would work because of the funky voltage required to clear the chip.
