The parts manual is in the FAQ. You can find it in there. Also you can get it from your local Dodge dealer.

TY Crazy,I checked the FAQ but there are too many choices and I dont really know wich one Id need.Nome of them say for a Magnum.Would an ECM from a 92 3.9 A/T 2wd fit or does it specifically have to come from a Magnum engine? Im calling the dealer tomorrow for a part number but gonna get a used one $$$ wise.Ty

Did they give you a price? Seems I'm going to have to go to the stealership to get the pcm for my 5.9 swap. Would like an idea of how much they are gonna gouge my wallet.

Used ones Ive been getting quotes of 90-$100 so the stealership Id expect $300 or better.Your better off trying to find one on-line with a warrenty or go to a local salvage yard and if they dont have 1 maybe they can find one on thier registry.I did find a couple company's that remanufacture them for around $180.This is for the 3.9 though so price may differ for the 5.9 Call the local dealer with the last 6 of the vin and get the part# for the 5.9 then go from there.

Ty I had NO idea.If I had it wouldn't have taken me so long to find one.Been going to the local yards and they are scarce.Seems new ones or remanufactured are outrageously priced.My biggest issue is mine HAD to come from a 92 with the Magnum engine.

If your buying a PCM I suggest to get the Mopar High Performance PCM's. Worth every penny. The V6's are no longer made but a few around if you find it online. It has been said the 5.2 runs great with the 5.9 MHP PCM. If your doing a V8 swap just get the Mopar HP PCM why mess with stock BS.
