So the programming editor has a definition file that points to the correct place in memory to store the data when you change it. That's why the 'chip' has to match the car, but the ecm's are all swappable.
I understand the programed addresses and stuff but a Different cam profile? I didn't think there was a difference in the cams between a 92 and the 93-95's.

As I understand it the cams are the same, but the cam timing on the intake is more advanced for the 405 hp engines.

Mike,

You may be correct although Jerry's gaskets show 2 different numbers for 90-92 and 93-95 cams. The timing will still make a difference however.
The 93-95 may be different due to difference in nose of cam/vernier gear interface.
