If you lose the EGR the intake can be bored for a standard computer controlled small cap distributor. You can then run the engine from a '7727/'7730 ECM. That is as long as no E auto trans is involved.

Yes, as far as I know the opti can not be run from an other then LT1 ECM.

I have know the opposite to be done. Where an opt disk has been mounted into a regular distributor. This allows an LT1 ECM to be used.

i know this is a month old thread, but if you still need a ecm. me and a buddy just got done converting his 93lt1 z28 to a northstar caddy DIS and switched to a 727 ecm. so he has his stock ecm laying around. great upgrade i might add lol

if you need one, i can foward this to him.
