Thanks Adrian for pointing that out. I had missed that it was a standalone ECU with a plug & play adapter. That would be an elegant solution and certainly another avenue to explore.

All true but a leap into the unknown. Getting a calibration right is no easy task and it must not be forgotten that the Morgan ECU also controls dash functions. Fitting and paying for time on a rolling road to get the calibration correct would be an expensive project and, in my opinion, not justifiable on a standard car.

A much easier solution is that of getting a replacement ECU of the same type as used on the Morgan and having it programmed with the correct calibration.

Have you asked Morgan what the cost of a replacement ECU would be? In the end it may actually cost less to go down that route.
