    BA XR8 Boss 260

    Hi,
    I am looking into fitting a boss 260, into a 55 F100.
    It doesn't have the original key(s).
    It does have the original ecu.

    Where would I start?
    What software / programmer would I need?

    Does any body know of a web link of some one doing similar and fitting a 260 into a different vehicle.

    Thanks,
    Aus.

    When you say key, you mean ignition?
    History is a statement, the future is a question.

    Or flash the PCM and have the security removed so you can trigger it any way you want.

    There are a few places that offer the service on ebay.

    depending on how much you want to play, there is also https://www.pcmtec.com/ which have an enthusiast package, i think you still need some additional hardware after that.

    Thanks, I contacted them. They were quite helpful. They said that they had had another customer do exactly the same thing. I just need to save up the $500 now.
