In my "status" thread (http://www.busconversions.com/bbs/index.php?topic=15876.0), I note that I will be using a loner ECU for my trip starting late next week (I hope). 

However, I need to find a backup to my ECM that will be reprogrammed in the next week or two.  TomC was kind enough to get me new prices (over $2K), but I don't have the funds for that. 

What I am looking for is the transmission mounted ECU (not the one in the shift tower) for a Generation 1 AutoShift.  Probably not something that anyone from this group has laying on the shelf, but maybe someone can give me a lead.  Nothing on Ebay.

Thanks,

Jim

Jim:  You may want to post that question on the escapees forum, under HDT, a lot of those guys have genI and II autoshifts and may know of an extra ECM.

Bob, I have the "C" ratio, but a "B" ratio would be fine - I can get it reprogrammed.

My guess is that they will be pretty proud of the ECU, or will not separate it from the transmission.
