Default Current options for ‘86-‘89 ECM replacement?

After doing a bit of testing this past weekend, it looks like the ECM in my car is a bit wonky and needs replacement.

However, taking a quick look at the local parts houses, it doesn’t appear that there are any reman 1227165 ECMs available now. I’ve seen the posts about sending your ECM into SIA for rebuild. However, I’d prefer not to do that if possible. What other options are out there now for finding a repaired/reman’d 165 ECM?

Thx!

Put a WTB ad in the for sale section. They come up for sale often. Someone might have a spare.
