Will a 86 caprice chip work in and 86 z28? Same computer #

I swapped in a gm 350 and instead of getting a coustom chip they said they have a chip for a 350 caprice and that they use the same ecm but the chip codes are diffrent. There not sure if it will work or not. (if not what should I do) What do you think? Thanks
The car has a Q-JET.

You can use the ecm from the caprice but you will have to change the chip (prom).
