That explains a lot. I totally understand where you are coming from now. Let me phrase it this way, although I mentioned flashing and busting the bin apart, it was just an example of sharing. As I said, there is not a need for reinventing the wheel, just learning. :-)
It also explains your knowledge and why I have a lot to learn from you. :-)

1. Do you think there is anything to learn building a 97 with a PCM/BCM?
