Do you accept ford eec-v pcm clone / programming modules from California?

Is there a ford eec-v pcm clone / programming shop in Los Angeles I should use instead?
Most Los Angeles shops don't keep the bench equipment for ford eec-v pcm clone / programming — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country west — about 2-3 days each way.
Does California vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
California requires a biennial Smog Check emissions inspection in most counties through the BAR program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all California and federal requirements.
My original PCM is completely dead — can you still program a donor?
Yes — that becomes replacement programming: we bench-flash the donor with the correct factory calibration for your VIN and engine/transmission combination, and any PATS initialization is finished at the vehicle. You lose nothing except the original's stored adaptations, which relearn on their own.
Do you cover the 7.3L Power Stroke diesel?
The 1999–2003 7.3L Power Stroke PCM is on our case-by-case list — many of those units read and write cleanly on the bench, but we confirm your specific service number first. Send the VIN and label photo and we'll give you a straight yes or no before you ship.
