[prorac1]

I have something for you Nate. This is from my secret stash of sources. Call this number, they are in Cleveland OH. They are a salvage yard that specializes in F bodies. 1-810-687-5667. If that one dosent work, PM me and I have another number for you, althought the second one is a long shot. Let me know. Hope this helps, Eric L

For your application a 1996/1997 LT1 pcm is plug and play. To use a 1994/1995 pcm you would need to replace the knock sensor in the block. I believe thats it. Eric L

what about the connector under the dash?

For the plug under the dash you tune the car as if it were a 95 and you use either the gm plug adaptor like i do or you wire a obd 2 end on the tuning cable. And yes, that phone number is M-F. I dont remember the name of the place, but I do remember its in Cleveland. I got a 6 speed console plate from them years ago. Eric L

I have the computer (I think that's the PCM, not sure) with the tune on it from my Formula. I don't know if your able to set it to factory settings or not, if so I'll sell it for pretty cheap.

I guess if it were me id pick up a spare ECM either way. Espically if you ever want to get into tuning. I always keep a spare ECM around in case I screw someting up, lol. Eric L

Decided I am going to pay the dealer $84 to do a diagnostic for me. That way I am not replacing parts that are actually good.

Got some black interior parts today so I got most of those put on. The left rear part was wrong. I didnt realize I got two right side pieces. Apparently firebirds came with different sound systems.. Other than that, it looks much better.

Just need seatbelts, carpet and seats to make it all black interior.

If dying the carpet is as easy as it sounds, I may try that. Even if it didnt work out, I would at least like to give it a go.

I also got what I think is a BCM, going to try that some time this week.

door panels and that last trunk piece will be coming your way thursday! Man, it looks alot better already even with the miss-matched parts. Maybe just delete the rear seats and get some black seat covers for now lolz.
