MK VII SD computer?

If all goes well in about 2 months I'm going to start my HO swap. I'm going to stick with speed density but I have a computer question that I don't think has been brought up. I know that both the Mustang and MK VII SD computer are just plug and play (ie pull old computer out plug in HO SD computer) but I have a concern. If I used to computer from a 90-92 MK VII with an air bag will it work? I'm worried that since the Bird has no air bag that the computer will think that the air bag is deployed and not let the car start. Is using the 90-92 MK VII computer a problem or is it ok? I just want to make sure before I get a computer because its much easier to find MK VIIs by me than 5.0 Mustangs. Thanks guys. :cool:
