Factory chips/computers

Hey guys.. I have an 89 Formula that HAD a 305 TBI. It went south and i put in a stock
92 Chevy truck 350. I swapped on the 350 knock sensor and the Whole
tb/injectors...BUT what about the chip?
Will the factory truck chip snap right into my Formula's computer and work just fine ..or
what? Are they compatible at all? How about the Caprice "police" chip? Part numbers
would be helpful too!!

The cop TBI used different injectors and a different ecm.
What ecm are you now running?.
Just run the entire set up and see how it goes, then if not happy start reading up on chip burning.
