Im pretty sure no it wont fit.

Troyman,
If i wan't to put an EL ECU in my Fairmont do i need to get an EL fairmont ECU? Will my climate control and all that stuff work? If i plug in the EL ECU do i have to leave the car for 1/2 an hour before i can start it? Is there a slight increase in power if i use it and what model EL ECU is best for my EB mont? Thanks and sorry to Lead foot for jumping in asking questions as im curious as well.

Thanks and sorry to Lead foot for jumping in asking questions as im curious as well. with the fairmont im pretty sure the climate control will still work through the eb bcm. the only thing that wont be correct is the trip computer but there is a way around that. you can plug the ecu in and start it straight away. you only need to do that if you change the smartlock module... there is a slight improvement in power. even more if you do the broad band manifold conversion.. a little trick is get a el ghia ecu 6djb it has the tickford xr6 timing and fuel maps. |

Thanks Troyman, I will keep an eye out.

with the ecu's what is the diffrents between the auto and manaul ecu's and do u have to run a manaul ecu with a manaul gear box?

The ECU's are slightly different, in that the auto maps in a Manual ECU are not used, and the idle controls are different.
However, many of us, myself included, are using an Auto ECU with a Manual Transmission, and are using resistors to trick the auto ECU into believing the auto is still there. BenJ
