No, it will not work. The wiring pinouts are different. It may be possible to repin the pcm, but thats alot of work.92 S10 3800 A4(96)<br />1/4: 14.374 @ 92.25 w/ 1.976 60\'<br />Turbo and 12\'s Coming Soon! -

You could always try to swap in '98 intakes, TB, and o2 sensors, the pick up your wiring and PCM on Ebay. Now with Magnus' tuning, I'm thinking about switching back to my 2000 intake and such and using DHP VIN changer to change it to a '95 VIN when I need too.95 Camaro 3.8L Y2K motor <br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/coriya71\" target=\"_blank\">www.cardomain.com/id/coriya71</a>Comment

Hood? Hood? We don't need no stinking hood!

yeh aren't '98's angled too? won't they fit under a 93-97 hood? are the '98 throttles electric or cabled?
and that changing the pinouts looks complex, but it's pretty straight forward....if that's all that has to be changed...looks pretty easy, albeit time consuming.

there is a LOT of work to put a 98 PCM in a 97.
Fuel system is completely different, gauges will have to be changed.... its really going to make your car a hybrid for sure.Keith - Chicago<br /><a href=\"http://www.hptuners.com\" target=\"_blank\">HP Tuners - PCM Reprogramming</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.dxsoftware.com/magnus/\" target=\"_blank\">97 Firebird V6 to LS1 swap</a><br /><b>V8 9.967@132.78</b> 1.322 60\' NA Heads/Cam<br /><b>V8 10.295@128.48</b> 1.363 60\' NA Cam Only<br /><b>V8 10.987@119.31</b> 1.422 60\' NA Stock Internals<br /><b>V6 13.674@98.22</b> NA<br /><b>V6 12.394@104.91</b> N20 100HPComment

Well, guess you'll just have to do one for 97 and below then ;) (hint,hint)
When you guys get extra time of course, I know you'll be busy for a while.

I'm crazy enough to try it if 97 software is never made! ;) I'm getting pretty good with wiring diagrams.92 S10 3800 A4(96)<br />1/4: 14.374 @ 92.25 w/ 1.976 60\'<br />Turbo and 12\'s Coming Soon!Comment

So, there's no benefit to changing the intake, tb etc from a 98 into a 97... the pcm/guages can be done only?1997 silver Camaro RS<br />|T-Type Powered|<br /><a href=\"http://www.kwfbody.com\" target=\"_blank\">Looking for a local F-Body club in K/W, Ontario, Canada?</a>Comment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...2 weeks ago
