Is there a gm vats delete (1986-2005) shop in Wichita I should use instead?

No. After VATS delete, any physical key that mechanically turns the ignition will start the car. Existing keys still work; the ECM just stops checking the resistor value.

Yes — we archive the original ECM data for 90 days. Within that window, restore is $75. After 90 days, restoration is best-effort.
