HELP NEEDED ASAP in Phoenix- work at a dealer or can reflash a PCM? '96 LT1 car

Swapped over a few things on the car this morning, and attempted to use my Hypertech to reprogram for them....and finally got bit in the *** like so many other poor saps with a Hypertech. Something went wrong, the check engine light is rapidly flashing, and now the car will barely start and is in no way driveable. Tried disconnecting the battery for 30 mins, and it's still the same (not that I expected any different...going to let it sit disconnected all day today and maybe I'll get lucky, but I'm not holding my breath)

Forum searching says a dealer can reprogram back to stock...as I'm really on the broke side right now, hoping to either find a deal with someone to get it reflashed on the cheap at a dealer, or have someone else locally reflash it for me...or even does anyone have a spare PCM for a '96/'97 Camaro LT1 car that I can buy? This is my only car right now, so I may not be able to get to the junk yards until the weekend to search for something there (will be taking the bus to/from work this week if I can't get this resolved quickly).

I'm in the northwest valley of Phoenix, 59th Ave/Bell area, but I do also have the 100 mile AAA towing plan if need be to get it transported somewhere. I'm extremely broke for the next few weeks, so I'm not looking for any kind of mail order performance tune..I just need the car to run, the sooner the better.
