Default Difference in model year PCMs??????

Is there a difference between the 2000 PCM and the 2001 PCM?
Thanks

97/8
99-mid03
mid03-04

wiring between 00 and 01 'should' be the same

I do NOT have firsthand experience w/ this, but have owned 98,99,00,02,03 cars, and the only diff noted on the outside was the 97/8 fins

s/w, you already know that

The pinouts 00 to 01 are the same (as per the service manual). I believe 99-02 are all the same pinout and all use the same PCM (frequently called a "411" pcm due to its part number).
