Nope, it's a spark controll box. The only thing on the carb is just a mixture enrichment solenoid of some type. It just has two settings, really. It can't continually change the mixture like on the electronic carbs.
To do engine management, you need throttle position, manifold pressure and/or mass air flow, intake temp, exhaust oxygen content and a knock sensor. You won't find all that stuff on the trucks until they went to TBI. Cars had them in the 80's. Those carbs have a throttle position sensor with wires coming our and wires for the "dancing needle" solenoid controlled main metering rods.
