Default DOHC and SOHC pcm??

I was wondering if i took the computer out of a DOHC and put it in a SOHC if it would make a difference or if it would even work.

I don't know...It might work...the sensors are different for the cam...but it gives the same signal to the pcm I believe. So, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't.

its been done a few times... gives a higer rev limit, 7200 vrs the stock 6750 on the sohc which is kinda nice... deff a worth while mod if you race or have other mods done... its a poor mans way to get a higher rev limit with out spending big bucks on an aftermarket ecu... although the best way to go is with an aftermarket ecu... this is just a step better then stock...

yes it will make you run rich but of you have a fair amount of mods its probably a good thing to have a bit more fuel anyway which is probably another reason why people notice an increase in power when the swap to the dohc pcm....
