Since it's not in an OBD2 car if you swap it, you shouldn't even think twice...OBD2 cars have to have OBD2 PCM's...3rd gen's don't."

Thats exactly what he said.

Cant wait to go home and start pulling apart the caprice now! No rush on the ecu since I'm still in school down in PA. Should I bother with the knock sensor?

Well ok then just remind me from time to time before you come back up to go dig
