You can always have it done, just not by Mommy Mopar. Mike Leach Company
will do a custom PCM for you. It will cost about $500 all told and they
need your stock one to do it. Mr. Barrett had his done like that. My
biggest problem with that is I wouldn't have a stock one to fall back on. I
was lucky. I don't have a 4X4 and Mopar made one for mine which I bought as
soon as they became available. I run the HP one and the stock one sits in
my closet.

You may be right Russ! I know I waited almost a year. (According to my
sources
there were only eight of these released nationwide in 1998/1999. In 2000 a
bunch more were reportedly released. I don't know how accurate my info is!
Anyway, I didn't think I would get one. And with my impatience hence the
advanced timing chain!
Jay, I don't think they will ever make one for the 5-speed! Sorry man,
you're
not the only one on the list that has wanted one of these!
