Is this a stock memcal for an '89 305 manual GTA???
The reason why I'm wondering is there is a resistor soldered to two different pins on the memcal as you can see in the pic. And some pins from the limp mode chips have been cut... doesn't exactly seem like factory work to me.
If anyone has any info on this please let me know.
