I know I'm continuing an off-topic thread drift, but re:ECU's -- ever heard of MegaSquirt? It's a fuel-injection computer that many folks are using to convert early Bosch analog D-Jetronic and early digital L-Jetronic systems to modern highly controllable digital injection. Improvements are reported to be outstanding over stock.

Given that they can put the equivalent of a Commodore 64 ca. 1982 on a single FPGA chip (and originally done so by someone NOT a degreed engineer in Germany I might add as her first FPGA project!), it wouldn't be a stretch to consider automotive ECMs on cars like that 1985 Corvette with a single-chip replacement. While not original, it's not any more outlandish than modern AM/FM conversions done on tube car radios.
