5 pseed PROM in an Auto???

I know the 5 speed PROM does not control the Overdrive, so I would lose that, is there anything else I should be aware of that could cause damage.

The reason I am asking is I have an 87 Computer & chip from an HO 305 with a 5 speed from a second car. I want to see if I get a significant performance improvement over my corrrent 86 Auto Chip.

Doubt there will be much difference, and frying is a real possibility.
Primary difference will be the IAC, since it acts a lil different for a manual tranny then an auto.
