Default Install help for PCMforless chip -- 87

I tried to search (really I did) but all I could find was Alvin telling people he would mail them the PDF. Alvin's a busy guy (as we know so well) and I really want to try my new toy. So....

Can anyone tell me how to figure out the orientation of Alvin's daughterboard as it fits into the stock computer on the 87? I see the orientation of the stock chip and the daughterboard -- that's easy. It is fitting the daughterboard onto the computer that has me concerned. I don't want to fry my chip (or my computer) by installing it incorrectly.

As always, a picture is worth 1000 words!

Thanks so much!

Default Thank you

Thanks so much, Alvin. I'll tackle this in the morning and, assuming the sun is out, take her for her first spin!

Thanks again.

Default pcmforless not perfect

of course they are not perffect, who ever is perfect step forward. they have done a great job for me on my 92 corvette.
we all have to learn as we go forward with these complicated fuel injected cars, but great gains are possible with todays engines...I am glad they are here for me as I add cam, headers ect ect to my Lt1.

they are doing their best though, they will stay with you till you will be satisfied with the tune 100%, they dont mind you keeping sending them data logs after every chip or file they send you and according to the data log they modify the tune and send it back to you till you will be satisfied from the result
