Thanks Ludis.  I thought that info might be bogus.  I was just hoping
they were using some interchangability data or something.  Can't take
off my CSH yet. :^)

In general it probably would not work to substitute a bin from anything
except a different code from the same ECM I guess.  Unless you had the
complete disassembly and could alter addresses written to for hardware
interface, and understood all the code.  I guess I will have to start
from my own bin and try to find the tables first.  Has anyone mapped
the other 783 bin that's on the site?

Thanks again.  Hadn't been there for a while.  Very useful info.
