How easy would it be to repin my 92+ Computer to a 90-91 pinout for use with an AEM 1120 computer instead of the 1121? Reason I ask is that I may have an opportunity to snag an 1120 for much cheaper than the current going $1500-1600. If it's not a total rectal tear to do I would probably go this route in lieu of paying full price for a 1121 AEM EMS.

Its not an issue of credit. If you got the skill then go for it.
What presure2 and I were trying to say, is that the hard part of tuning an ems is all the daily driving, part throttle, kinds of stuff. You really need to have the car on a load based dyno to get the different load points down, throttle enrichment, cold start up, etc... just to be able to have a car that drives like it does now with the stock ecu. If you can do it, then go for it! But at the very least you would need to book some dyno time, because all of that stuff is very hard to street tune to get right.
