No, you don't need a DRAC (assuming you have everything working with the
730.)  All you need to do is flip the bit in the SyTy PROM image that
tells it to use the "high and low" VSS inputs instead.  You might also
have to change a few calibration constants that the ECM uses to convert
the VSS inputs to MPH.
