The computer should be a 7165 TPI computer for 86-89, but you will probably need a PROM for a 5-speed car.

it'll work, but the shift up light will be lit when cruising.

Well the PROM I have now is for my car..Can't I just use it? Also, is there a sure fire way to test if the ECM is bad? The shift light will always remain lit even if I have the right PROM? DAMNIT!! I am getting a new ECM to try and get rid of the SES light!!..I don't need another gay orange light telling me something..
