Correct mapping for Camshafts

Carl,

I can't verify the ECM, but the guy brought the PROM only to the shop. Code
was AWLB on the chip--only in the 6299 ECM. I'm starting to wonder what else
was swapped in the truck <g>...
This is where it gets kinda tricky--I "think" the VE map starts at 2E6--but
is larger than the 7747 Map ????

Lyndon.
