What is the ultimate goal of doing it? If it is so you can adjust some settings (I know the 97 is limited for some things) consider buying a dyno tune with the money instead. With the software they have they might be able to meet or exceed what you want to do for less money and without all the wire cutting.

98 will be the same as your 97 PCM.
The later model PCM will allow way more resolution for tuning.
I just had mine changed to a 2002 by EFI Alchemy and even though we're sorting through some issues now I can see a great improvement over all.
