You could also use a pcm from a 94-5 Caprice sedan or wagon Roadmaster sedan or wagon, or Fleetwood even if the Caprice pcm is from a 4.3L V8 car yes V8 it is called an L99 and looks exactly like a LT1. These all use the same exact part number pcm as the f-body. The Impala for all practical purposes was just a TRIM package on a Caprice the mechanical differences are so small as to not be particularly important, they guys with Impalas don't like it when you say that though, truth hurts sometimes.

The b-body computers programming also differs in AC control fueling and spark it would run in an f-body but I wouldn't drive it.

Nah I am not one for asthetics which the SS definetely has, 
hell after the deer hit I have not had the blue and silver nose painted red to match the rest of the car even that would cut into the mod budget. Been over why a Caprice fit my needs better in the past don't need to rehash them hear. I mostly just wanted to let guys know the variety of cars they can source pcms from and especially in the case of say a L99 Caprice you might just pay less for the same exact hardware.

Good to here Dwayne. How many miles have put on the ZZ3 since I sold it to you? I put 15k on it if my memory serves right.

Better than 30K since I put it in. If you look close that puts me at number two stock heads with aftermarket cam I have a few things up my sleeve going to shoot for 12s full weight before I start pulling stuff off. This was on 87 octane wonder what the bump to 93 will do for me?
