Is the 165 ECM out of a TPI F-body (1989) one of those that talks first at
160 baud, or is the resistor enough, or ....

Thanks, Barry (and Bruce) for your replies! It's my understanding that some
cars need to be in certain modes in order to enable 8192 baud (otherwise
they default to 160 baud PWM on the wire). I'm clueless on SyTy's, so that's
why I asked the question about the resistor - I didn't know if it was one of
those or not. :)
