730 in a buick...

[Teller.John at orbital.com]

Yes, the Somerset is in fact a 2-door N body (aka Grand Am or Calais).  It
was only made for a few years -- 85 to 87 I think.  When Buick quit making
the X body Skylark, it started making a 4-door version of the Somerset
which it rebadged as Skylark.  My 85 Somerset has the 1226864 ECM with the
2.5L 4-cyl - currently undergoing a serious rebuild!

That's a strange combination.  The Somerset Regal is just a Grand Am (N
body), right?  If so, it should probably have a '748 with the 2.5.  The
'730 would imply a 2.8, or perhaps a 2.0.

We need more information - a P4 ECM can have many different table
arrangements.  What is the 8th byte of the EPROM?
