If your interested I know a vendor who is willing to sell the PCM's for around 280 to 300 check out group buys.

Note: you must use premium fuel w/ a PCM.

I just put in a mopar performance pcm in my 93 5.2 incresed my fuel milage by 1 mpg. It also has much better acceleration. the only draw back is you have to run 91 octain or it pings.I got mine at glendora dodge for $235.

HEY Eric I live in Hesperia and work in Chino I have been buying parts at Glendora dodge for about 25 years (it was Norm king dodge then).A freind of mine is the parts manager there.We were in a mopar car club in the late 70,s early 80,s.What kind of a Dakota do you have?

also I forgot to mention if you send your old PCM to mopar they will give you a $100 rebate.

Tony,
I live less than 5 minutes away from Glendora Dodge. That is where I bought my truck actually. Those guys are nice but don't seem to know anything about the 4.7s at all.
