3800 PCM QUESTION ...

[burtgtp1973]

I haver been calling local junk yards trying to locate a pcm for my car. the guy is telling me that there are several model cars that have the same pcm as our cars ... all i would need is the tech II programmed to be done ... does this make any sence , and will a different year GP (stock) pcm work in my car ?

IIRC you have a 97 PCM correct??


Also IIRC 97 is the only year besides 04 where the PCM is different. Im not sure if there are different model cars with your specific PCM...but it also has to have the correct programming as well.

Maybe an early regal GS might work. I thought their PCM is more restricted though. Thats just what I heard. Dont know if the gears are the same either.

97 pcm stands alone then its 98-03 I think then its the 04 Pcm's I think thats how it goes.

Actually its more like .

97 GT is a PCM
97 GTP is a different PCM
98 - 02 SE/GT/GTP are basically interchangeable
03 PCM is different than others
04 is different

I have a few 97 pcm's here somewhere if i din't labotomize them yet !

Hey Justin, the non-SC PCMs are interchangable wih SC cars? I didnt think you could do that?

This is a question...
