My experience and most others will agree is to swap to a obd1 pcm. All you need Is a 94 or 95 pcm and a 94 or 95 knock sensor. Then get a aldl cable for a 95 since it will be the obd2 diagnostic port. Then you can download tuner pro rt free, and go to http://fbodytech.com and download the free software to load tunes, that's the one I use and it works wonderful there are others out there. Both of them accept donations if you like the product but they are otherwise free.
You can download a few cc503 tunes for free or get a email tune from someone, I used MoeHorsePower

If you don't wanna do all that I'm sure you can mail your obd2 pcm to someone

Is your car and automatic?

then you will need a 1995 BIN file for the transmission settings if you chose to do an OBD1 PCM. No big deal though just something to remember when you get a tune (bin file)

I thought the only difference was the PWM solenoid on the 95 and up trans?

Basically if you do it, it will downshift 3 neutral 2 and that will beat the trans up, plus the lock up will burn up too. if you want to see a 3 neutral 2 downshift look at my impala on my YouTube on the dyno.....it wasn't pretty
