Chipped p28 ecu with basemap for the ls/vtec. Common sense!

The word Stock already answered your own question.

Only engine you want stock p73 is a stock B18C5. Any engine with any mods other than the most basic of bolt-ons needs a custom tune, usually on a chipped OBD1 ECU. Keep your current ECU.

which one? p73-003,4,5 are worth $80-120

if it's p73-a02 or 3 you're at $200 pretty easy
