In about a month's time I will have an 022D ECU, old chip, and an upgrade
chip available to sell, in case anyone is interested.

My leaky head gasket finally gave out about the time I purchased one of
these upgrade chips and so I've only put about 27 miles on the chip, give
or take a block or two.  I've decided to go the Tiico inline engine route
instead of fixing the heads, so I'll no longer need the ECU or chips.
