How much does it cost to have a pcm refashed by the dealer? I'm thinking abou buying a pcm for 100 bucks and want to put my vin on it.

thanks ace

thats due to the fact that most dealers wont flash a junkyard pcm as half the time it wont take anyway. plus it has to be in the vehicle to program .

why do you want another one anyway :confused:

well I have a 68 transplant that I will put it in but if i can flash it to the same vin and stuff as my 01 I will have a backup just in case, for either car.
Or I could just leave it the way it is but it will use up a spot on my efi cable. so if it's cost effective I would get a reflash from the dealer.
