It sounds like you want to get "CCM2 datasets and circulation
statistics", NCAR Technical Note TN-391+STR, by Gloria Williamson (I
believe you contact the Climate Modeling Section secretary). This
document describes several CCM2 simulations including a 20-year run with
climatological SSTs and a pair of 10-year runs with AMIP (atmospheric
model intercomparison project-- 1979-1988 monthly mean lower boundary)
SSTs. All history tapes (except perhaps the first AMIP run) are on the
Mass Storage System accessible from the NCAR Cray Y-MP.
