That's a stand alone ecm, they were pretty good at the time - around 2000 if I remember. Been a while.

Look up Electromotive EFI. The TEC3 is an older version of their system. The claim to fame for that system is the speed timing wheel and how it's supposed to control spark very closely. A buddy of mine had one on a 5.0 HO in a Cobra kit car. Decent system for it's day, but does not have a lot of features of the newer stuff out there.

At one time Electromotive was ahead of their time.

As soon as I saw your post I googled it. They're still around!
It looks like they concentrate on their ignition and engine management systems.
