Odometer reading necessary for new ECU??
A friend bought an 78 GTA Firebird with no engine, trans or ECU.
He is trying to buy a replacement ECU and the vendor who is "building a custom one" for him insists he have the odometer reading to program that into the memcal or something or it will "throw a code"
Is this true or is he blowing smoke???
Also, the odometer on the car is invisible and we cannot read the numbers.
Any help would be appreciated!!

sounds like hogwash to me, these don't have an E-cell timer

That's what I thought!!!
This owner has NO knowledge of anything FI at all. I don't have much either, but even I know better than that. Just needed backup to show him.
