Think I will try the swap, I can solder (famous last words)

Being a Chrysler man most of my life... what is a W body?

I am guessing that an ECM for a W body will be cheaper than one removed =
from
a Vette, ...image costs.

Yes, the 727 was weather resistant, and came from 90-91 vette as well as
most W bodies up to 95. You can run a TBI program on a 727, as it had a =
few
factory TBI applications (albeit 4 bangers.)
