Were there any third gen camaros made without an ECM? ....
I picked up an 85 Berlinetta (LG4) to get parts off of for my V6 -> 305 swap, when I removed the dash & went to disconnect the ECM there wasn't one, just an empty upper shell from one with the berlies "black box" attached to it (for electronics) I disconnected the black box & started the car to see if this was infact the ECM but the car fired up with no problems.
Could the ECM have been located somewhere other than on the Passenger side behind the dash? I followed the wires and didn't see an ECM
TIA
