memcal/prom

Hey guys,

If I burn a prom, (for a 305) and stick it in a ZIF in a 350 memcal, will that have any adverse effects as long as the comptuer stays out of limp?

Thanks

The Knock sensor filters vary.
Might trace detonate too much and do long term damage. Far better to use the right one. I've done the different K/S Knock module dance before and it can take lots and lots of time to get the right parts. Unless your really good at reading plugs I'd say use the right memcal.

Well I tried to get a price from the idiots at GM dealership, they said $60, does that sound right for a new memcal?

I dont have an extra $60 right now so im hoping its eaither cheaper, or will work with the 350 memcal

$60 for the right part, or your gambling with a set of rings, or exhaust valves.
It's easier to do things right once.
