Hi new to the site and was wondering if anyone had done a stand alone ECU for the a440f2 auto in the 80 series as I'm doing a ford Barra conversion and not sure about wiring for gear box of it needs it at all any help would be appreciated thanx

The A440F is 100% hydraulic.
There is no A440F2, but there is an A442F.
In OZ the person to ask would be Rodney at Wholesale Automatics.

The consensus in all the turbo threads I've been reading seems to be that controlling the transmission is too difficult to be feasible, but a stand alone engine ecu parallel to the OEM ecu is pretty straightforward. @scottryanais the guy to ask.

I haven't followed the turbo threads, but the 343 and 442 transmissions are pretty simple as standalone.

Problem is keeping the factory ECM/PCM happy without a transmission controller.

Ahh, that makes sense. I'm still trying to wrap my head around how all this stuff works together as I plan my poorly devised turbo build.

Would you happen to know what needs what or a. Wiring diagram or where I could find more info thank you
