Yea that's a good deal most times you cant find the ECU for under $60 and the VAM for under $50 so that plus injectors is good I got lucky only spent $35 on my ECU and $15 on the VAM

Thats a good price. Only problem is the ECM GOOD and is the VAM good. You need some insurance in this area. Both parts may be CAPUT. Ask seller for a guarantee. Hope this helps.

Okay, so I tried to bid on the darn thing but I kept gettign outbid until it was up to $145... I AM NOT RICH!!! lol

So I did some more searching and found an LA2:1987-88 Ford Turbo Coupe LA2 Processor on eBay.ca (item 130333385381 end time 05-Oct-09 19:55:13 EDT)

What is the difference between the LA2 and LA3? And would an LA2 support 300HP like the LA3 on my '88 thunderbird engine?

Thanks guys, Steve

Well, it is $22 if I go USPS, but yeah, that's what I was worried about; the LA2 is not as good... Oh well, I still have a few months before the engine will be ready for installation... Lots of time to scan ebay!

Thanks, Steve
